Hi, anyone know how many they made? I read that they made 200, is that true?
Also if you own one of these beauties whats the serial number?
Mines ends with 0002, does that mean its number 2?
I found some info on a website, I cant remember where. I will update when I get it. On that site it showed the guy that NAMED the amp. "OCTANE" PG flew him out to their factory and he got the very first one.

i think he is considering the larger side of the octane a mono channel because it is generally used to drive sub(s) being fed a mono signal.
