Identify this cabinet?

We had an out-of-town gig last night and the owner of the pub provided a 'bass rig', which the opening act's bassist used. I tried to have a good look at this big 'ol cab, but for a myriad of reasons, was only able to get a picture of it, from several feet away. I'm not sure if it actually is a bass cabinet, but there appeared to be a horn at the top, and four 12s (?), in a staggered line. Whatever it was, it sounded thunderous. Any insight appreciated.

There actually were a lot of weird cabs peavey made for slide guitar players and doublers (folks who play more than one instrument), that had multiple 12's or 10's and a horn.
One guitarist for a band I used to be in had a Peavey 2x12 tube combo with a big freaking horn and way too many watts. Heritage? I think was the model.
That cabinet hard to say what its called but a 6x12 missing two speaks is a good guess. Could also be an old Earth Peavey clone.
 
Calaverasgrande..the 212 amp with the horn was an Austin for acoustic guitar.
Heritage was a 120 watt 212 with solid state pre and tube pwr amp. Also had a phase shifter or chorus.
You have a good memory to remember the Earth clones.

If that 612 sounded decent at all, the speakers that don't show were replaced with speakers with cloth dust covers instead of aluminum. Two open 12" speaker holes would not have helped the sound.
