RE: Thiel 3.7 my first impressions

I was very interested to read your impressions of the CS 3.7. I am every bit as interested in your take on the CS 3.6. I just purchased a used pair of CS 3.6 on audiogon and will be picking them up next weekend. I am anticipating getting them home and giving them a listen, but I must say it is with mixed feelings. I heard the CS 2.4s and liked them, but I hear so much negative commentary about the high frequencies of the CS 3.6, that I am worried they will be too hot for me. I guess Thiels had/have a reputation for shrill, hot, aggressive top ends, but the CS 3.6 was supposed to be better than earlier Thiels in this regard. Nevertheless, every reviewer I read noted they will reveal everything in the top end of recordings and that that is not always pleasant.
I'd be interested in your or anyone else's thoughts on this issue. Of course, I will have to listen and judge for myself when I'm listening to them in my room.
What electronics have you tried for your CS 3.6s?
