Anyone has info about theese overgrown A5?

I've seen pictures a couple of time on what appears to be A5 systems, but with bigger bass horns.
Any have any info on theese? They appear to be old but I can't find them in any of the Altec catalogs, which goes back to 1945.

My opinion is they are home made not factory.

I'm pretty sure the aren't homemade because I have pictures of two antother pair where you clearly see the vott logo on the sides. Unfortunately I havent any server to put them, but I can mail if someone can help me with that, or just want to see them.

Quaramon,
This is the H-110 enclosure used in the A-5 until it was replaced by the 825 A-7/A-5 enclosure in the early 50's. You will see it in the 1945 catalog on page 10.

They can't be homemade, can they?

Thanks stpower, i missed that!
...Model A5 is a smaller size loudspeaker... (from catalog), they had other references then I think.
