We are offering only two pair of Bella EXtreme 100 amplifiers at a special summer's end price of $6995 a pair. We are now down to only one pair left as the other pair has been snagged by a reviewer
 I will offer this last pair for only $6500 to AC members only. It will be custom built to order.

 After this last pair is gone, the selling price will go back to $8K due to the extensive manufacturing cost increase of materials over the past year or so.

 For those who are looking for a more affordable version of these amplifiers, I will also offer a pair of Signature BE100's for $4,600.

Wnated to clear something up regarding the Signature version mentioned above. In the past, the triode switching was option on these but it is now standard feature.

 Something else I wanted to comment on was regarding the capacitor used in the single ended input circuit.
 On the webpage, it mentions the use of the VH Audio OIMP capacitor being used in this location. A larger value OIMP was choosen for a smoother, more seductive midrange and upper end as well as more body and weight down below as this is what was asked for due to the popular use of these amps in home theater applications. For those who want a bit more sparkle up top, we use a smaller value (same as in the full reference version) AuriCap in the Signature (Teflon in the Reference). The OIMP is not available in this value.
 The Signature BE 100 amplifiers have everything the full Reference versions do except for the use of Teflon coupling capacitors. Sonically these amps have impressed many with their smooth, seductive nature.

 Lastly, it does not mention it on the website  but the Signature version does also have balanced inputs. This is done by a switch. If anyone wants the units wired for straight balanced or single ended, we can bypass the switch and eliminate it from the circuit. This can be done on any of the BE 100 amplifiers.


 By the way, the prices above are for AC members only.

Still one pair left.....look for another review on the Reference BE 100's in the near future
