Amp recommendation for Alon IV

Cary SLI-80 integrated would be an excellent choice if you don't play at ear shattering volume. It has 80 watts in ultralinear and 40 in triode mode.

Jolida JD1000RC integrated would also be good. It's rated at 100 watts.

Rogue Stereo 90 would be in your price range.

ASL Hurricanes sound great when they're working, but early models had a terrible track record for breaking down. It's probably best to steer clear of them for a first tube amp.

If you want to go the SS route, Belles 150A Hotrod and Sunfire would be great options. I'm sure there are lots of others.

Early model Hurricanes seemed like an experiment rather than a finished product. Every one I've seen has a sagging top chassis plate because the sheet metal they used was too thin to support those enormous transformers. The new models were completed redesigned and are supposed to be more reliable. You definitely want to avoid the first gen.

I wouldn't dismiss the Cary SLI-80 or Jolida JD1000RC. Either one will drive your Alons quite nice and allow you to eliminate the Rega Mira 3.

The Alon 4's are different then the other Alon models in that they have a 15" woofer and are very power hungry.

There's no debate that large woofers require more power, but I want to point out the Model IV has a 12" woofer -- not 15". The amount of power you need depends on how loud you play. If you tend to rock out, then 200 watts makes sense. If you play more conservatively, you can get by with 80 watts quite nicely. The other issue to take into consideration is the impedance. The Model IV is 8 ohms nominal, 3 ohms minimum.
