This auction has been on there on and off for quite some time. Its pretty amusing. If you do a search for Pass Labs it comes up.

The guy says the Belles 350's are better sounding and cheaper then the Pass XL-600's but they only sound best with expensive power cords and then he is going to throw in the $3000.00 power cords for only $2000.00. Sheesh.... So you save money with the Belles amps and then completely loose any savings from having to buy garden hose size power chords. At any rate Belles has definately stolen Nelsons Blue LED thingy......
Hey Nelson are you hiding some new type of XL circuit from us? This guy seems to know about it..........The XL-600....?
The Belles is 1KW into 8 ohms and they only weigh 60 lbs ea???? My 100 watt Aleph 2's each weigh more than that. Judging by the small size the Belles has to be using Class B output stages with a teenie weenie toroid, or does the Belles bridge connect directly to the AC line via the Kaptivator Chord all together bypassing the need for the teenie weenie toroid?
Oh, BTW: The 350's also sound better than his $18,000.00 tube amps too.
Yikes!

I had a big groan over this ad as well. The guy has run this ad a few times.
Suspend all thinking about the .25 mile of Romex in your house, and the .50 cent power outlet!
The Old West is alive and well. Dr. Scholock has a bottle of snake oil for $5 bucks to pour over your speakers to lub the tweeters or polish the electricastatic panels, to washout distoration.

P.S. the only thing better is the couple of folks who keep selling Pass Labs gear from Indonesia or Australia with new Ebay accounts each time the ads appear.
