Mystery Peavey 2x15

So my brother picked this up for a steal on a whim. It's unloaded but seems like all the wiring is there for quick hookup. Has anyone here ever seen/played out of a cab like this? It is a 2x15, I can't remember what the model is however. The grilles are covering the portholes while the speakers are slanted inwards inside the cab.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks! IMAG0346.jpg

Those are subs. I gave away a pair of those a few years back. There's a crossover board up in there too. Those things were inefficient beasts as I recall. The pair I had were given to me. I scavenged the black widows and gave them to a friend of my son. If you want more I can likely have them located.
 
That is an RBS-1 cab. It was a bandpass sub of sorts designed for small club PA systems.

They were originally loaded with the mighty 1505DT Black Widow, which you would be doing yourself a great disservice if you didn't pull out of there and load into "regular" bass cabs, but alas, yours is empty.

You could do what I did to mine, which is remove all the access covers and grills, saw a couple 6"-8" holes between the upper and lower chambers, lay a couple pieces of old carpet inside, and give it to your cats as their dreamhouse. :)
