DIY F2 distorting BAD in one channel

[hugz]

Howdy


As of yesterday, my F2 has started distorting BAD. It sounds like it's happening mostly in then upper midrange.

It worked fine for years but then recently I decided to finally put a case on it. This required pulling it apart completely and putting it back together.

After being cased up it worked fine for at least a day. Now it's fucked in one channel. Prior to this, it had been on for a few hours, so my guess is that it overheated (since it's now in a case (ie less airflow).

Any thoughts what could be the cause? Ripping off the mosfets will be a [pain, so I'm curious if there's qany likely causes?

Thanks

It seems to be getting worse, but I DID slightly fiddle with the wiring sometime before it went bad. Reflowing the joints will be the first order of business, thanks.
