Maggie 3.6R driven by Antique Sound labHurricane??

I recently purchased a pair of maggies 3.6R and will be using the Njoe Tjoeb cd player. I own a pair of modified Outalw 200 monoblocks and I am considering the purchase of the Antique Sound lab Hurricane power amplifier . Are there any other tube amp options I should consider and has any body driven their maggies with the Hurricane? I will appreciate advise especially because my location prevents me from auditioning equipment.

Thanks Muata

Muata, I understand the AL's are 200w/channel. I had Cary V12' Monoblocks also at 200w/channel - not enough power to open up the 3.6's soundstage. It's also difficult to play at louder volumes since the amp will clip and blow your tweeter fuses. Concensus seems to be a minimum of 500 watts to get the best out of the 3.6.
