Gamut Speakers....Anyone? Hello?


I have been conducting in-home auditions with extended review time with Gamut Speakers recently. Last month, I reviewed the mew M3 for positive-feedback.com and I am now working on a review of the M5. As it happened, the M5 had to go to a costumer earlier than expected so I was provided with a pair of the M7s for the "fun of it" (and boy are they fun..)

So, this week, I decided to do some additional research and was taken aback by the dearth of reviews or even user comments regarding Gamut speakers....

IMO, they are very good speakers and represent remarkable value and I through Google would have dug up a lot more information than it did...

Any comments or thoughts on this?

I have the L5s and am very happy with them; there is a pair currently on Audiogon. The truth is there apparently were not many pairs of the L series in the US; I bought mine with no audition based on extensive research. I considered applying for a dealership but the M series is out of the price range that would sell here in the backwoods of audio. They are not easy to drive but are a real bargain used; really handsome as well.
A pair of L7s just became avalable on here, if I didn't have the 5s I would be looking at them even if they are probably too large for my room. A good deal for someone.
When I looked at the M5s it appears to me that they are not the equal of the L series. They are actually cheaper and the cabinet work does not appear to be as good; square rather than rounded as the Ls are. Also the M5 appears to have the same drivers as the L5 [ same size at least] but is 20 to 25 lb lighter. Go for the Ls if you can find one.
