Your speakers could be Model R, the 1st speaker made by Fried products after the split with IMF, or the updated Model R II. The boxes and drivers(KEF B139 woofer, KEF B110 mid, KEF T27 tweeter were the same in both versions) The R had a modified KEF Concerto speaker crossover. The R II had a custom crossover with better parts and a 200 Hz crossover instead of 375 Hz. What looks like a port is a deep tunnel heavily stuffed with foam and no sound comes out. It is a version of the Dynaco A25 loading and is also called a variovent. The RII is noticeably more open than the Model R.I noticed the stands in front of the speakers. They were distributed by Hank Fried, Bud's son.
Lots of memories here for me.
