You may want to ask around, but I am thinking your 30 watts will drive these just fine. Min impedance is 6.5 Ohms, Nominal is 8 Ohms

Currently I'm using Merlin TSM mmi speakers -- the model preceding the Black Magic edition. I could update the Merlins (~$1k) or switch to entirely new speakers. Silky, non-fatiguing top end is mandatory.

That’s a lot of $$ for the upgrade.
If I were in your shoes I think I would be looking for a different speaker also. I think the Reference 3A Mm DeCapo or Reflector would be a great choice., but thats my opinion. Also pretty versatile speakers. Will work with everything from 300B SET to Nelson Pass First Watt F6 or F7.

I upgraded preamp and drive tubes and fuses in my Ars Sonus Filarmonia, made quite an improvement. I am thinking down the road I may get the new Sophia Electric EL34 tubes. Also I may have the coupling caps changed out for a V-cap or similar.

If time permits let me know what you finally settle on. I would be interested in your personal experiences with the Fila.

Here's another you may want to check into

Bradf, Thanks for you input. I take it you have personal experience with the various speakers you recommend, Ref 3a De Capo, Fritz, Tyler, Salk, etc. The cost for the Merlin upgrade was what Rich at Signature quoted -- new tweeters and crossover components. I'm curious about the upgrades you made to your Fila. Did you switch to vintage valves? Do you have the latest model Fila?
