Vandersteen 2CE's


I am looking at purchasing a pair of used 2CE's and was wondering if I can use any of the equipment I have, or should I be looking for a new amp setup? And if so, seperates or integrated?

I have a Rotel RB-985 MKII and a Sony TA-E9000es that was previously used with the Rotel.

This is my first step up so any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Something not mentioned about the 2Ces yet is how critical proper set up is. When you get them take your time and experiment with placement, toe in, and most important in my experience, tilt angle. Those speakers can go from nice to exceptional with correct positioning. Enjoy.
I have also owned both the Vandy 2CE sigs and the Polk LSi-15s; two very different speakers for sure. If I had the room and could live with two large monoliths in the room I'd go for the Vandys. The Polks are very accurate and detailed but I'm partial to time coherent designs.
