Harman Kardon Citation II & Mcintosh C47

After a few years with my LFD integrated I've decided to move to a ss preamp/tube amp combo. I bought a restored HK Citation II amp from audioclassics.com and a Mcintosh C47 preamp from audioclassics as well, anxiously waiting for delivery on both. I remember audioclassics from my younger audiophile days; good memories.

Should be a synergistic combo. Thoughts? A very new Mcintosh preamp (introduced 2015) and a very old (but completely restored) HK amp. I've been in this hobby for about 30 years, I don't see any gotcha's but would like to get opinions of things to keep in mind when setting them up. Besides the fact that I'm going to need help lifting the amp.

And where the heck is the on/off switch on the Citation? Not apparent to me in any pics I could find.

Thanks.
