Can DK design MKII drive the Magenapan MG1.6 well?

I just bought a DK MKII int-amp, and want to buy MG1.6 later. I wonder if they match each other well. any inputs are appreciated.

If the power rating (watts) of the DK doubles from 8 to 4 OHM this would suggest it would do well with Maggies in general. I used to own 1.6s and drove them with a Plinius SA 100 MKIII amp that had 100 watts and it drove them much better than a Plinius 8200 integrated that had 175 watts because the SA 100 is a true class A design with lots of current.
