Thiel 3.6 s and amplifier choices

I recently purchased Thiel 3.6's. Currently driving them with an Aragon 4004 Mark II. Other equip is Arcam FMJ23 Cd, VPI TNT, and Krell KRSII preamp, FMS Grey cables and old Audioquest Interconnects. Looking for suggestions on amplifier as I think there is a lot more to be had out of these speakers. Balance is slightly tipped up due to mid bass leanness but they do so many things right. Any thoughts.

At the Thiel factory, they use a FPB Krell 600 and Audio Research Reference gear. They recommeded a Krell 600 with the Thiel 7.2's.

I've got a Sony TA-N80ES driving my Thiels at 270 wpc at 4 ohms.

One upgrade path is to buy another Sony and bridge them, one amp per speaker.

Any experience on this setup or considered opinions?

What about Macs? I have a chance of getting me a used CS6. Which Mac will do 'em justice?

In my opinion the Mac is not a good choice.
It would sound ok, though not as tight as some others in the bass region. The mac is very smoothe a good thing with the THIEL, but not as controlled as say Classe, Krell (a tad bit grainy) Pass. Of these, I'd pick the Pass.
Good Luck
