Hello guys. I found this forum to be very informative so I decided to join.
I'm in need of some help, I'm currently working on a star sound amplifier, I replaced all the output MOSFETs together with the drivers ir21844s.
The MOSFETs are getting very hot without any load. Can someone please help on what to check for. Thanks in advance.

Did you buy the ICs from them as well?
Are they an autorized distributor?
Did the ICs arrive sealed in a pack with desiccant and a moisture monitor card?
Are all of the FETs heating equally?
Do you have any experience repairing amps?
Have you repaired any of the 21844 based amps before?

All the parts came in antistatic packets, Always buy from this company they sell genuine parts never had a problem before. I repaired one amplifier like this before with blown power supply fets and output fets replaced drivers ICs and the amp works perfect.
All the fets are not heating equally.
