I suspect they're supposed to be paired with an appropriate controller/amplifier controller package (possibly a PA-5PV).

 

Chances are the cabling is Cannon EP4 ends on 4 conductor.

 

MSRP was $2,215ea. approx. 15 years ago (when they were probably built).

Nice sounding speaker, very heavy.

I wonder if that's the same Apogee company that used to put out a high-end Hi-Fi full-range ribbon speaker back in the 80's. I don't recall the model (Duetta perhaps?), but it was a fairly thin panel, quite large at almost 5' tall as I recall, and sorta resembled the shape of a piano's top. (triangular)

Nope, completely different company.
