These amps are in excellent condition and function perfectly.
They retail for $8500/pair, but are currently sold out.
Here are the main features of the amps:
• Reference V-Cap Teflon coupling capacitors
• SoniCap Platinum Teflon input coupling capacitors (single ended)
• SoniCap Gen II innerstage coupling capacitors.
• Elna Cerafine cathode bypass capacitors
• Mills non-inductive grid stop resistors.
• Mills non-inductive screen grid resistors
• Mills non-inductive cathode resistors.
• Dale/Vishay 1 watt, 1% non-magnetic signal path resistors
• Dale/Vishay 1 watt, 1% non-magnetic bias stage resistors
• Dale/Vishay 3 watt, 1% wirewound resistors are used in various power supply locations.
• All exposed resistors leads throughout the signal path have heatshrink applied to help reduce mechanical vibration as well as preventing circuit shorts.
• The ground layout is designed to provide the best possible results with a dead quiet background and lowest noise floor.
• Fairchild "Ultra Fast - Soft Recovery" diodes are utilized in the rectifying stage of the power supply.
• Cryogenic treated silver plated IEC connectors.
• SoniCap Platinum Teflon power supply bypass capacitors.
• Silver platted copper input signal wire
• Neutrik XLR input connectors
• High quality RCA input jacks.
• High quality sourced toggle switch for pentode / triode operation.
• WBT speaker binding post
• Minimum 12 hours system burn-in.

http://www.bellaextreme.com/Bellaextreme100.htmThis particular pair also has aluminum cones installed.
The original output tubes have very few hours on them as I have been using the Gold Lion Re-Issues. It will also come with the stock 6SN7 and 6SL7 tubes.
I am the original and only owner and I have all of the original packaging.
The amps have been well maintained and used in both triode and pentode modes depending on which speakers I have used them with (Vandersteen 5A's - full range in Triode mode or Emerald Physics CS2's - in Pentode driving the two 15" woofers).
For $500 cheaper than Bill is selling a pair of Platinum 100's, you can move up to the Full Reference version (which is almost $2000 more from a list price perspective. You also get the remainder of the 5 year warranty (almost 4 full years).
I charge actual shipping costs and will ship either FedEx or UPS.
I can accept PayPal, but you will need to add 3% to cover the PayPal costs.
My feedback on Audiogon is perfect and is under the username "zybar".
If you have any questions about the amps, shoot me a PM and I will get back to you quickly.
Please do not turn this thread into a "why are you selling them?" or "what did you replace them with?" by posting those types of questions.
Lastly, here are a few pictures of my actual amps:
Thanks.
