Nice set up!
Those look like JBL manufactured drivers to Westrex UK spec (?). If so, I've heard a set up using those drivers and to my ears, they have a different flavor compared to the WE753C I linked earlier and the WE757A monitor + drivers discussed in the link below.

The photos I attached were not my own speakers, but the same model - 2326A.

Yes, UK supplied. In fact, one of the tweeter voice coils was faulty when I bought these big speakers (for 20 GDP), but luckily the Westrex works was a few miles from where I worked, so getting it replaced was a painless job. I wonder what those drivers would be worth now.
