I had a pair of 3.6 for a while and also spent a good deal of time at a friend's who had the 1.6s. I personally don't care for them above all because they are so big in size. You really do need a dedicated room to get the most out of these, they needed at least for me to come way into the room. Even in my listening room I had them halfway into the room and they made it seem small.
I think they sound pretty neat and do some really nice things. If you like delicate music like acoustic string quartets and such these are pretty great. I never really liked the non precise imaging that I heard with them and when it comes to higher energy electronic music they sounded weak in the bass slam department, not terrible just weaker than other dynamic speakers I've had. They are also one of those speaker that when you move to one side you basically just hear that one speaker. I personally don't like to have to lock my head in a vice and sit only in the sweet spot to enjoy music. All panel speakers I've had especially electrostats require the head in a vice. That alone is a deal breaker for me.
