    No he's talking about the Belles Model 1 amplifier. I know it's from the mid 80's and cost around $500 back then. 100wpc and most of the info you can find is positive regarding it's sound/performance. I think around $300 is probably close to the going rate. There's one at a vintage audio shop online for $325. It could very possibly need some servicing however. If you didn't want to put some money into it you might be better off getting something more current.
