Best new tube amp under $1500?

I second the JWN AMP recommendation.

Rogue M-120 can be found in your price range used. 120 watts in ultralinear and 60 watts in triode. Having the triode option would be nice. There's one in the classifieds right now. I have no connection to the seller.

An excellent SS alternative is a Sunfire 300. These things sound amazing and have vast power reserves. They're smooth and non-fatiguing with a subtle warmth. They can handle loads down to 1 ohm. Many folks believe these are Bob Carver's best work. They come up used for around $700-800.

FWIW, I have Alons and switched from tubes to Sunfire.

JWN is no longer in business..& owes several people.

I HAVE THE ALON II AND THE ALON IV'S THEY NEED A LOT OF POWER TO MAKE THEM SHINE.....FOR IV'S ARE ON A C/J 2500A SS, WITH C/J PV12....THE II'S ARE ON A C/J 2300A WITH C/J PV 10L, AND SURPRISING SOUND REAL GOOD. THE 2300A HAS A MOSFET/JFET DESIGN AND IS MORE MIDRANGE TO HIGHS TYPE OF AMP....BUT GET SOME THING POWERFUL LIKE THE JOHN CURL DESIGN A21 AMP WHICH IS PRETTY GOOD AND NOT TO EXPENSIVE....LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU CHOOSE..

Kennesawjet please stop yelling we understand you. That all caps is tough on the eyes to read.

For me I think one should look at the Jolida JD-502P tube amplifier. It can use the more powerful Tung Sol KT-120 and even the Tung Sol KT-150 tubes for more power. For the amp and the tubes you can get it for just under $1500 new.
