I had the 3.6's and drove them with a 27, then a 333, and, finally with VTL's. If you like the 331, you'll love the 333. Plenty of power, but adding a Sound Anchors stand to the 333 greatly increased clarity and bass slam. I ordered the stand with the upgraded casters, just so I could move the beast easily, though it would probably have sounded even better with the spikes.
Before you switch amps, you might want to change cables, especially if you're going to stick with a Levinson. I first drove the 3.6's with a Levinson 27 and actually like it a lot, even though it was less power than the 333.
I switched from solid state to tube and found it to be more musical, but that's another argument.
I would advise, when you get to the cables, to try newer Transparents. Smooths out the highs that sometimes makes Thiels sound a bit bright.
I liked those 3.6's a lot, and that Meridian is a real sweet piece.
