Bella EXtreme 3205

See below for RMAF special pricing!!

NEWS: The Bella EXtreme 3205 debuted at the 2006 Rocky Mountain Audio Fest in room 1009 with The Bolder Cable Co. See pictures and read the comments!!.

The Bella EXtreme 3205 is the latest, most affordable product in the Musica Bella line. They represent what many are considering among the best value in custom built tube audio products. The 3205 amplifiers have been Response Audio's #1 selling product for over 3 years now. To read some customer feedback, check out our Testimonial Page.

The Bella EXtreme 3205 amplifiers are a Response Audio exclusive being available nowhere else in the world. The Bella EXtreme 3205 is a stereo power amplifier based on brand new original Jolida "A" series chassis utilizing EL34 or 6550/KT88 type output tubes for a respectable 50/60 watts per channel.

We actually gut the units to a point where the only thing remaining on or in the chassis is the transformers which are already of exceptional quality. From there we completely rebuild each individual amp one piece at a time using the components listed below. There has always been concerns about the quality control of the early Jolida 302/502A amplifiers and we can assure you this is no longer an issue with the 3205 products. Response Audio now has over four hundred of these products playing nicely in consumer's systems. To this date, we have seen less than 3 pieces in for any type of warranty work which is less than 1%. These are numbers we can live with.

Above we show two custom Bella EXtreme 3205 amplifiers. The unit with the solid hardwood front is prior to the custom laser engraving of the face plate.

Below we show the two aluminum face plates available for the 3205 amplifier. You will notice the engraving in the aluminum color pieces is much more subtle but definitely recognizable. Pictures of engraved wood panels will e coming soon. At this time, we have both Cherry and Black Walnut available. These really look sharp after being laser engraved!
