I use to have the 3.6's great speaker but hard to drive. They can be in your face a little through the mids and highs, and they need a amp with good tight controled bass.
They do remain mostly under 3ohms, so an amp with good current is a must. Stereophile test measurements here

My self I would look at amps that have reputation for good bass control, but ones with high class A bias to keep the mids and highs sweet. So the hot running medium to large size Krell's, Mark Levinson's and other manufacturers like them would be my choice for these speakers.
Read the full review here, if the 225watt VTL's couldn't do it in the bass, then I doubt the Mac's with transformer output will either.
