Hello everyone !
First thread here, I hope I'm creating it the right way ! (... And I'm french furthermore, sorry for my non-perfect english !)

So i rented a house last week, in which were 2 vintage floorstanding speakers, without any reference (except an unknow logo at the front)
I did some researchs but I'm unable to find what they are.
I also find the design pretty strange : one tweeter at the top, Another one at the bottom : I've never seen such a design...

Based on these 2 photos, maybe someone will be able to identify them ?
The landlord was unable to give me any information..

I did not have the opportunity to test it a lot, but the sound was pretty nice. The bass was very shy, maybe due to their age and non-mint condition

Thanks in advance for your help :)

No luck on Google lens image search for either. Looks like a B H in the logo (or other way around). Have you opened the back to see if there's more information? Usually there's some kind of manufacturer tag inside.

Thanks for your answer !
I feel really stupid now... I searched for "HB speakers", but I didn't searched for "BH speakers"...
In this order I found the reference : these are the Bruno Henry BH200.
Very few informations on the internet, it seems to be a very confidential french manufacturer, not very clear if he is still active.

I'm concerned by the design tho : what are the advantages of putting 2 tweeters in this configuration ? Doesnt that create some issues, Like phase issues ?

@Albema Probably no advantages. I suspect measurements of these speakers will look ..interesting. :)

It might lead to audible cancellation and/or peaks.
