Vandersteen 2ce and McCormack floor models...

I have just received my Vandersteen 2ce speakers (took four months!!).. The shop where I bought the speakers has a McCormack set up consisting of the UPD-1 universal cd player,RLD preamp and the DNA125 amp. It sounds good. I gather from the forums here that Vandersteen and McCormack is a good marriage. Was wondering if these models are ok for the vandersteens and if he is selling these floor models, what kind of a price reduction is to be expected? Any suggestions for cables is appreciated as well.. he is using ?? but they cost 1500$. series named after vikings or something. sorry to be vague about that.

Thanks for the help. I looked at the UDP-1 but am not sure if it is the deluxe model.. is it designated as such? The dealer did not seem to know.

My room is a hard loft..12 foot ceilings, 20 feet of windows on one end, a big open space. I would assume that the set up should not be in front of the windows. I would hope this space can accommodate the Vandersteens.

Also is there a way to tell how old the units are? Can you tell by the serial numbers on the back on the units?
