depending on what cabinet you are using, I might suggest a 120w tube head. a guitar head can work well. I use a Garnet BTO (which is an old Canadian brand) and I as well as well as a lot of other people are in love with my sound. I run it through an ampeg 610. Mind you, we're only kinda loud and there is only one guitar player I have to contend with.
But like an Ampeg V4 or V4B (preferably) even a marshall JCM 800. An Orange of smaller size than the 200 would probably sound awesome. Are OR120's any more attainable? Traynors? can you get those things over there? If so, the YBA-3 Custom Special (the old ones, not sure about the new ones) sound really good. Stay away from the new YBA-200, can't comment on the newer 300.
Aside from that, the SVT is the gold standard. Can't go wrong with one of them.
Then there's always solid state. Bass sounds really good with solid state. Just get up in the 400W RMS range to even think about being loud enough.
