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

Choose amplifiers for speakers, not speakers for amplifiers.

Thats very helpful
The Thiels work, of course
But I notice they treble is harsh, while the bass is rounded
The midrange is missing to a large degree
Also, I just dont have the right room to set them up properly
Really need a great speaker that matches the tube amp
That is not complicated by additional equipment etc

AlmRg, nice of you to point that out , thanks
I did talk to the speaker maker you recommended, and did get get the feeling that it would be the right fit. Problem being ,of course, guessing at speakers without hearing them is really hard.
I live pretty isolated, the nearest city had three dealers who have all gone out of business.
Not sure as to the reason, economy , or the itunes
