Speaker ID?

I purchased these Electro-Voice Aristocrat speakers but have not picked them up yet. I don't recognize the drivers that are enclosed, and the person who sold them could not see the back of the drivers for further ID.

Puzzling, perhaps the dispersion horn is simply missing. Looking at pictures of vintage Jensen coaxial speakers I recognized similar acordian surrounds and HF horns with a white throat. So maybe we are looking at a Jensen without the horn. Just my wild guess.

I am picking them up tomorrow and I am very interested in who made the speakers. I have seen many brands of vintage speakers but this type is not familiar at all.

I thought the way but maybe he changed the horn for something different or more modern?

From what I can find, they were sold cabinet first then the buyer would choose a speaker system. This may be a DIY conversion of some type because the baffle holds one speaker.

They were sold as kits or empty boxes, but the included baffle had a spot for a 12" and two precut horn openings that came with blanking plates.

Tis a custom baffle you see, likely thicker than the original as well.
