Any chance you have the dimensions or could post pictures? How many drivers do they have?

They should be pretty easy to ID if you can post pics showing the drivers.
Or pics and dimensions if you can't get to the drivers.

With M in the serial number, those would be the Mini-III's. Three-way bookshelf: 12" x 19" x 9.5", 4 ohm impedance. Great little speakers, built like armored tanks.

thks for all the feedback, will get some pictures and will measure them. will also try and remove the grills and get some pictures of the speakers themselves...regards chuck.

They should look something like these pics. And if you can, maybe you can carefully pull a woofer and include a pic of your crossover.

Don't risk ruining your speakers if you're not comfortable with this - - - I think Rectilinear grilles were often fastened with several small brads. But this is the only way to get inside, and most likely the caps could benefit from replacement, so if you do decide to proceed, work slowly and with care. And, the "M" in the serial number is used to specifically designate this as the Mini-III, in order to differentiate from the two versions of the model III, a much larger speaker offered in two cabinet configurations.
