Tweeter ID. Electrostatic???

Snagged a pair of these today for very little money, but have no clue what they are as there is nothing at all on them. "Electrostatic" was scrawled on the IKEAesque carton the were jammed in, one wrapped in a paper towel.

Any and all help is appreciated!!
Thanks, Andy

There is no apostrophe S for plural (Speakers). That said,
looks like the driver is in a plastic sack of some kind to protect it until its to be used ...
so, a pair of them for low money, presuming they work, is pretty cool.
 
Plenty of smart folks here so maybe they'll be identified.
From my view not much to go on, part of them is black, the ends are pointed. Physical measurements might help, as well as a picture of the other side. If electrostatics wouldn't they need a power supply?

If Radio Shack maybe the center driver in these?

There are two and the back has a couple spade lugs and a third mess in between. The foil is only on the front, so I suspect it may be the diaphram/membrane.

Pics up later.

It looks like there was some paperwork included, maybe posting some scans or screenshots of that information would help the community provide the guidance you seek.
 
No paperwork, just a paper towel and an IKEA style box which might not be the proper one. More pics in a bit.
 
Here’s more pics. BTW, this is academic now as I can’t hear anything out of them with signal to the studs. I pulled the back and again zero markings.

I recently got a pair of Infinity 2000A speakers that have 4 Electrostatic tweeters per cabinet.
They have 3 connections each and the crossover is also a power supply to drive them - they plug into the wall (110vAC).
If your pair isn’t being energized by a power supply, zero output.
I don’t know what power yours need, but without power, nada.
 
Yeah, I was wondering about that, but IDK what and where the power would go or what the requirements are as far as current and voltage.

I did try Google lens, but all i get there are truck mirrors and oil coolers..:rflmao::rflmao:
