What is best tube mono's for Dunlavy SC III's?

Hello,
Just purchased a pair of Dunlavy SC III's. I would like to use a pair of mono tube amps with them. They are rated at 250 watts maximum, is that 250 ss watts? Meaning, that, they will handle 500 watts at their 4 ohm load? So far, as I can see, the ASL Hurricane might be the best for these, I wanted to use VTL 450, but, too laid back, and highs drop off... power wise, I think it would be perfect match though... any suggestions? Also, where can I download the owners manual, and other information on these speakers, not much I can find on web.

Thanks,

Rick

I have both the SCIIIs and the SCIIIa(s). All Dunlavy's
really benefit from high-current designed models. I use a
combination of solid state amps (two vertically bi-amped) and a tube preamp. This seems to given the best of both worlds with this design. Late model Audio Research epuipment is a terrific choice with these speakers as well.
