Yamaha pm4000 perhaps? The size of the rear I/O panel would suggest this.
For sidefills, can we have two enormous things of a type that might be venerated as Gods by the inhabitants of Easter Island, capable of reaching volumes that would make Beelzebub soil his pants.

I just came across this set of pictures (whilst searching online for something completely different).

A typical late 70's / early 80's rig with Martin bins and mids and the usual mixture of JBL horns (and a few HF2's). And the big JBL lenses on sidefills. It's an ML Executives rig.

As was often the case, stacked to fit in the available space, and definitely not to optimise the acoustic performance!

Seems like something of that era (Yamaha PM - Ramsa - Soundcraft 8000 or something...), but it looks a bit small to house a 4000. An 1800 perhaps ?
