Rega Ela by Royd

That's a later Rega woofer version isn't it? I thought the Royd versions had the 8-bolt round woofer as you showed above.

It's odd. Mine have the half fluted cabinet, but with the Royd woofer. Series 1.25 I think they call it? Couldn't find a pic of that configuration. The above seems the be the series 1.5, which case the same half fluted cabinet, but as you point out, With the Rega woofer.
 
I've got a pair of ELAs, but a later version. I believe mine are MKIIs. I bought them new in '94 or so.

Of all the speakers I own, these never cease to impress me when I go back to them. I recapped them with Solens a few years ago. I love their quickness and agility.

This is a "borrowed" pic from the interweb.

Yep. That's the 1.25.
 
The old tweeters are VERY solidly in place. I was warned that might be the case. I didn't know how accurate that warning would be.
