Saw these at a thrift store today. Anyone recognize them?

No Markings on the outside. They kind of look like ashtrays, don't know if they sound like ashtrays.

Anyone?

Thanks.

Are these subs? The single RCA on the bottom of that one is confusing me...

I wonder if they could be a mid/late 60's Bang&Olafsun. Nice to see that Austin Powers donates his Shagadelic gear when he upgrades his kit...

They look like omni-directional speakers to me.

I would think the cone shape helps spread the sound in all directions so that during listen sessions or swinger parties;) the music would seem as though it was coming from all around you.

Wow what a blast from the past. My parents had them in there living room. Still no idea who made them but it was funny seeing them again.
