Can someone ID these speakers?

Purchased a few nice things from an estate, it included a few late 1980's turntables (Linn, Oracle, etc.) and some mid-to hi end electronics.
This symbol is on a pair of bookshelf (satellite?) speakers. I thought they were Celestions when I first got them, but the symbol is wrong.
Anyone know what these might be?
The logo is about the size of a nickel, located at the top left. No model number or other ID near binding posts.
Thanks for your help, folks!
Best,
Andrew.
P.S. can add photos of speakers if it helps, but they are pretty non-descript.

Nicely done!

These may well be Atlantis speakers. I can really see the former owner wanting a pair of Quads and buying these to save some dough.
More photos being posted.
Cabinets are appx. 9" wide, 12" deep, and 13" tall. The foam grills don't seem to want to be removable (am I missing a trick?).
Anyone ever seen the Atlantis badge before?
Nice Google, JohnG; your Google Fu exceeded mine.
Thanks!
Andrew.

The grills are either glued, nailed, or otherwise secured; not sure if there is a trick to getting them off, but I've spent a bit of time trying to see. No luck.

Not uncommon for the logo plates to hold one corner down with either a intregal nail or screw. But that's usually on recessed grille frames. Grilles made like yours usually have velcro which is glued and stapled intp place and those can develop a death grip over time. You may want to shine a bright light into the corners of the grille material to see if any nails or screws are visable.
