[QUOTE="youdoofus, post: 8575106, member: 664079"] if im not mistaken, the MOSFETs are usually on the side of the PCB boards and would heat up exactly where youre talking about. I dont like the sound of this and wouldnt be too hesitant to return it. Its probably a repaired amp with either a poor repair job or wrong transistors installed during said repair. If its gettin pretty hot with no audio source nor speakers connected to it, thats a red flag to me. My SQ2200.1 stays very cool even when im beating on it fwiw [/QUOTE]
