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
Thanks as I find these forums really usefull

Look into a pair of ZU Audio speakers. Very efficient and very tube friendly.

I think the OPS amp is a hybrid with tube input stage, not a tube output power amp.

Acidfolk, why did you buy the Thiels? In another thread you started it was clearly stated that they need at least 200 wpc to sound their best.

You need to get some focus. List some examples of systems that you have heard and liked. Not just single components, but whole systems. Doing that will at least give you a direction that you can be pointed in. If you can't list any systems, I recommend not spending any more money until you can.

Choose amplifiers for speakers, not speakers for amplifiers.
