Found this on the diy mobile audio forums...

Those amps were custom made back in the early 1990's. The internals/board were made by Orion and the Heat sinks were made by Charles Wieland. These were custom made amps for certain dealers. I had about 10 of them and Sold them all on Ebay. The ones you saw were at one time all mines. Very impressive amplifiers as well.
Charles Wieland is a recognized Aerospace heat sink Engineer. Builds most Heatsinks that go one most airplanes. I don't know exactly why they chose him to make these Heatsinks. They do look nice. They have a metallic black and purple color, identical to the Orion NT amps.

These were never mass produced.
