Default Amplifiers for B&W 801 D4s

I am toying with the idea of changing up the amplifiers between my c1100 and my 801s. A few questions, in terms of power and spec match:

- Are the MC611s the optimal sweetspot match for these speakers?

- Would the new 3500s be ‘enough’ power and headroom for these speakers?

- Would 1.2KWs be ‘too much’ power for these speakers?

- Are there any risks of clipping or blowing out speakers with ANY of the above?

Thanks!
