I owned 1.6s for several years, drove them with KSA-150.
Bass was Ok, but no rock and roll mode for sure. I still loved them. I've got 3.6s now, and they for sure go deeper.
Setup for me is pretty much Cardas calculated. In my room, bass is greatly affected by distance to front wall. In general as the speakers are moved closer to front wall, bass diminishes.
I ran the 1.6s and 3.6s with less toe-in than recommended. they just seemed too bright for me with normal TI. It was either this or use the tweeter attenuator...(Tweeter on outside)
