What model is this speaker?

I saw a pair of these speakers at a bar and I'd love to know their make and model. Here's a photo: https://imgur.com/pDIO9fJ It may not be that clear, but there's also an array of four horns below the main enclosure.

Looks like an Altec 816vi

bradf has the bass speaker. the horns (for treble) are separate and might be the 511b.

Thanks for the speedy replies, they pointed me in the right direction! This morning I got an answer from the owner of the bar. The bass speaker is a custom enclosure inspired by the 816 and A7 with an Altec driver. The horn is a refurbished 511B.
