Mark Levinson 523 preamp with McIntosh power amp?


Hi, currently I am owning a Mark Levinson 523 preamp which I like it a lot. Recently I saw a used McIntosh MC452 power amp for sales, at a good price. Do you think ML preamp + McIntosh Power amp are a good match? Anyone tried this combo before? Or ML is better match with Ayre power amp like VX5 Twenty? Thanks for the advice
