Visit taking in first couple of ringing bells (8)

I believe the answer is:

carillon

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'ringing bells' is the definition.
'carillon' can be an answer for 'bells' (I have seen 'Mechanical bells' mean 'carillon' so perhaps 'bells' could also mean 'carillon'). I'm not sure about the 'ringing' bit.

'visit taking in first couple' is the wordplay.
'visit' becomes 'call on' (synonyms).
'taking in' indicates putting letters inside.
'first couple' becomes 'ri' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'callon' placed around 'ri' is 'CARILLON'.

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for carillon that I've seen before include "Set of bells playing melodies" , "Tune played from bell-tower" , "Set of bells or a tune played on them" , "sound of bells" , "Stop" .)
