Are these real Acoustic Research speakers?

I can't find any information about these online, does anyone know if they are a knock off or real AR speakers? The 10" woofer appears to be made of some kind of transparent material. They are about 3 feet tall and weigh like 50 pounds each, they appear to be pretty solidly built. Thanks for any help!DSCN2065.jpg

Interesting. I had never heard of white van speakers but I guess you saw this:

One poster says these can blow up your amp! I'd junk them.

A bit more on the "white van scam":

You were smart to inquire here and do your research. Let us know when you score some real ARs ;)

NOT a Acoustic Research product......I've seen these before....a rip off!

AR did not use "ported" enclosures until the STC-660 which I own and has 2 acoustic suspension satellite cabinets and a ported sub enclosure then the "HO" series in the 80's.
