    ID ALTEC scoop

    It looks like the living voice loudspeaker made in England. They were using Vitavox drivers.
    K 15/40 for the bass driver
    S2 compression driver with a horn very similar to the Altec 511
    and the JBL tweeter to extend from14kHz to 21kHz.
    I guess this config is also using another tweeter. It could be super tweeter above the JBL 2405 or a different tweeter to replace the JBL.

    I also thought of Living Voice when I saw that enclosure, though it doesn't quite resemble any of their current offerings. Another possibility is that it was inspired by LV but built in Asia by Utopia or a similar company.
