i can seen to find these or get a good cross on these anywhere any ideas??
also anything else to be concerned with in repairing a class d amp??
the resistors before the mosfets also went with them. those should be easy enough to find though. thanks hope someone can help

Hi ZFactor,

5 HEXFETS? Hm Strange. 4 or 8 might be more logical. But that's the easy part. Test and replace if broken.

Is there some sort of (IC Chip)driver, driving the FET's? If there is, that might be broken too.

Than the reg: is it in the control part or the powerpart of the amp?
What are the surrounding values of the (electrolytic)caps connected to the reg?

Try to find out the pin config of the IRFZ and see in what line the broken Resistors are. Tells you a little more about the rest of the circuit.

Better to find some schematics and post them.

Good luck, Frank
