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

I think you would like the Wilson Benesch Vector speakers. Not well known in the US but world wide presence. Our shop has easily driven them with 40 watts tube amplifiers. The midrange is exquisite, wired directly to your Einstein amplifiers ( no crossover ) and they cover almost the entire midrange from 400 Hz to 5000 kHz. A good review on their website wilson-benesch.com. If you can't down load it I can email it to you.

I forgot to add that they are manufactured from carbon fiber, not the drivers but the cabinets themselves.

Best

The Einstein amps are OTL, so go with 8 ohm speakers as a 4 ohm load will decrease the power of the amps to about 40wpc & if the load goes a tad lower - the amps will have a fit!
Find something 8 ohm & 90db & the amps will raise the hair on your neck.
Would my tube amp the Einstein be able to handle
Those speakers?

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.
Hi thanks fir that
I searched them up
The reviews claim that mbls work best with
Their own amps

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...
