McIntosh MC2002 Power Amp

I have an opportunity to purchase a McIntoh MC2002 amp. Can anyone tell me how this will fare with my Vandersteen 2CE speakers? I also have an AnqitueSound Labs 2006DT tube pre-amplifier.

Does anyone also know if only the meters light up or does the buttons on the front panel also do. I can't seem to find any pictures on this product.

Thanks

I can't answer your integrating question, but I have owned a pair of these amps in bygone years (now have a MC7200-same amp, but better) and the meters light up, the on/off switch is in red lighting, and the lettering "MC2002 Amplifier" also lights up in green.

I just dug out a picture of the amp, and let me make a correction. Under the meters it says "200/200 Watt Stereo Power Amplifier" in green lighting, at the upper right hand corner it says "McIntosh" and under that, "MC 2002", all in green lighting. Power button is as stated. Really was a good amp, it does not have the autoformers, power was rated at 200 wpc @ 8 ohms, 300 wpc @ 4 ohms.
