Looking for a speaker for my LM 845 Premium


Today I have the Tekton Double Impact, but now matter what I match them with there are some hardness / brightness in the mid range.
I am looking for a high efficiency speaker for my 30W tube amp.
sensitivity > 92db
impedance min. at any frequency 4 ohm.
My room 25m2

And if possible made in Europe, Why? because import from the US add 1/3 on top of the price, and more if it’s a very heavy speaker.

The hardness brightness in your mid-range is probably coming from the speaker cables in the interconnects.

Do you even know what he's using now? 

I agree that AN would compare very closely with DeVores other than perhaps ideal room placement.  That's where I would lean as well if searching in Europe.
As a point of reference, the LM dealer I worked with earlier this year indicated that the DeVore O/93 is the perfect match for the LM845 Premium.  Perhaps something European-made with similar specs would work well?  I have the LM805ia paired with O/96's and the combo is magical.

Prepare yourself for comments that the Tektons should sound better than any speaker on the planet and the underlying issue is actually your room, your terrible Chinese-made amp, not letting the speakers warm up properly, some defective part in the Tekton that can be easily fixed, your inability to hear properly, or your lack of user-applied tweaking to the Tektons to realize their full potential.  I hear Rustoleum, springs, rubber bands, any SR product, and perhaps chewing gum all make up the secret sauce that no component maker ever wants to include in their products that put the performance over the top because the incremental cost just would become untenable.  lol
