Any love for the Belles Aria or other recent Belles amplifier?

I was lucky to get my hands on the Belles SA30 class A power amp, what a fantastic sound, very organic and musical. Very happy with the purchase.

I’ve got a Belles Aria and it is fantastic.  Its very open sounfing with good textures and micro details.  Bass control is fantastic as well.  I believe it has a damping factor of 2000 or something close to that; perhaps thats why the bass response is so good.  When I popped the cover off to peer inside I was impressed with the build quality and material used.

The Belles aria is a great little amp.  It sounds really nice, slightly sweet sounding.  I’d love to hear some new Klipsches with the Aria.  I think that would be a good match. I’m currently using the Aria Integrated with some Fritz Carrera BE’s and they sound wonderful together!

I just purchased a Belles Aria Dual Mono integrated and at 125 hours of use, I am thrilled beyond words!  It "woke up" my Spendor D7.2's with a very lively cohesive dense soundstage that is immediate sounding, yet, interestingly enough, I don't get fatigued listening to this amplifier for hours on end. I have owned many amplifiers over the decades, yet, I can now listen to CD's again with this amplifier plugged into my system. They now sound so good that I'm not chomping at the bit anymore to play a record. The Belles Aria Dual Mono  integrated is IMHO, the best sounding and most enjoyable amplifier I have ever owned. It has grunt, clarity, great bass, mids and detail / air up top without irritation. I also like how it is built and how form follows function. I think it looks great with the black chassis too. Finally, before hooking it up, I took a look under the hood and smiled when I saw two nice size power transformers. It claims to be 85wpc, but it sounds way more muscular than it might appear to be with my 8 ohm speakers. This would be the amp I would keep if I had to choose only one. Before looking elsewhere, take a risk with the Aria Dual Mono integrated. It is a very special and speaker friendly piece worth owning.

I was lucky enough to find and buy a pair of Belles Aria monoblocks recently.  Listening to them for the 2nd night in a row and really enjoying them. Despite having less power than either my Schiit Vidar or McCormack DNA-1, they seem to dig deeper with the KEF LS50 Metas and drive them better. The Metas have never sounded better.

Belles MB-200 mono blocks with a ‘new’ Belles Aria Signature preamp combo. Happy camper. My Vandersteen Treo’s seem to like them too.
