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.

Good equipment to start. I prefer solidstate power with Vandersteens. Some prefer tubes. I find that good solidstate brings out the best of what they have to offer. They are revealing enough to perform even better with upmarket amplification and source components.
100 WPC will drive them fine if the room is not too large.
More power is, of course, usually better. I don't think 200 watts is essential unless you play them really, really loud.
