If you have model numbers I may be able to identify the stuff.
B&K were the top of the line acoustic instrumentation. Their
microphones are world standard and they made a copy of the Western
Electric 640AA for measurments were it was speced. They did make a wave
analyser, somewhat similar to the one made by General Radio, I believe
it could be coupled to a chart recorder.
The tube is probably for measuring acoustic impedance. The impedance
rig is essentially an acoustic bridge. There may be couplings to
standard compression loudspeaker drivers. The microphones are valuable
and don't age. They can be certified by NIST so someone probably kept them.
