100W Ultimate Fidelity Amplifier

One quick question regarding the heat sink size for the AX14 amp. I am using a small size cabinet with the heat sink size being 24.5cm(depth)/11cm(height)/2cm (fins width) and with the bias around -4mV to -10mV its very hot to touch. Some issue with my bias setting or the heat sink size is smaller??
I am checking the bias with the DMM's red wire being on the Q17 mosfet pin and the black wire being on the Output pin. Also I am using a 30+30v transformer secondary as rated below, 4 secondaries.
0-30v @ 2.5A
0-30v @ 2.5A
0-30v @ 2.5A
0-30v @ 2.5A

through the CRC psu which gives a stable +/-47VDC. I hope the voltages are fine for this amp.

Thanks
