Very nice! :D
I'm sure they don't sound like old Dynacos and I mean that in a good way.

Those look like custom cabinets for the Seas A26 kit sold at Madisound.  Fully optioned, the parts for these speakers are over $1,000.  Yes:  these are modern interpretation of the Dynaco A25.  I owned a pair of A25XL’s (close to these in concept).

These speakers are no threat to Devore.  They are likely about 88-89dB/1/w.  However, they have no crossover on the woofer and impedance stays decently high through its entire range.  It should be easy to drive.  I could easily drive my Dynacos with a 6wpc Tripath amp.

This looks like it is the factory-recommended 1.5 cu ft enclosure.  Once speakers get this size it starts to get more expensive to make and sell.  Based on what we see $4,500 in this veneer is not unreasonable.
