Looks like a Chinese derivative of the old Eagle (Coral) FR8 to me. It's not a bass driver, it's a twin cone full-range unit. Similar have been available on ebay.
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

They were in a pair of Acoustic Research AR25's!
Excellent fit....

Amazing what you can find in old ARs - it looks pretty old to me but does look like a cheap far-east made unit.
The back and the style of the stamp reminds me of the drivers from 1970s Amstrad badged speakers.

I believe they were sold under the Soundlab brand. The 6.5 inch version is still available.
