Tekton Lore vs. M-Lore

I'm interested in buying Tekton speakers and I'd like to know if anyone has listened to both the Lore and the M-Lore. If so, what are the differences between the two? Does the M-Lore sacrifice any of the clarity, depth, or musicality of the Lore? I plan on supplementing the speakers with a subwoofer so I'm wondering if it's still worth it to spend an additional $350 on the Lore ($350 is roughly 30% more when taking into account the cost of veneers, grills, and shipping). I know Lore have an upgraded tweeter but does it really warrant the additional cost? It appears that some people even prefer the tweeter in the M-Lore to the gold tweeter in the Lore.

I will temporarily be using the speakers in an 11 x 15 room but I plan on moving in the near future so room size shouldn't factor into the decision too much. Thanks in advance for your help.

Just an FYI

Here is a review from Stereomojo about the Tekton M-Lore.

The Tekton M-Lore got the Maximum Mojo Award to boot.

I enjoy reading the reviews on Stereomojo. They don't mess around.

I've read two professional reviews online (both gave outstanding reviews) but they don't answer my questions regarding comparisons to the Lore. I was hoping someone on this forum has listened to both and could perhaps offer their opinion.

Have you spoken with Eric at Tekton? My experience is that he'll give you an honest assessment of the differences between the two speakers based on your equipment and listening and won't just try to sell the more expensive speaker.
