Wrong speakers

Unwittingly , reversed the method for putting a system together.
Glad to have the Einstein power amp along with a Wadia
The mistake I made was to buy thiel
3.6 .
Researching this after the fact, I realize that the thiels only blossom with strong current.
So, will replace them with speakers that suit the Einstein.
Cruising the forums here , The best or most popular, desired etc
Seem to be, mbl, ohmm, sonus faber, possibly Tannoy as well.
Asking for help in choosing a used speaker for under $15K

Of the mfgrs. you listed, I would most like to own a pair of speakers from MBL. Their design and execution are fabulous. And I see that there is a pair of 116s available here for $8,700. I would buy those speakers in a hot second if I had the money...

Nope. Well, maybe that's a bit much, but I'd certainly say that it's a bad match - certainly worse than the Thiel - for your amp.

The MBL designs are very tough on power amps.
