Hi,
because of so many amps coming along i would like to build two mono enclosures as a playground for further projects. I will use one BIG heatsink for up to three channels of Nelson and / or Mighty Zen amps for my active speakers.
Sometime i will need only one channel of them for passive speaker. Is there any problem of ageing for mosfets on unused channels?
The another idea of this is to change only amplifier boards and not the power supply and enclosures all the time which is time consuming.

I will make sure they make new friends often, given all the new projects here on Diyaudio 🙂.
I hope that one of them will be Babelfish XA252 (when available) as it have balanced inputs (and more power). Is there any other of your available amps with balanced inputs?

If powered (or even if not powered), short the channel's input when it is not used.
entire P series (upcoming) is having SE/Bal inputs
besides that, Aleph J - shown by 6L6 in his BAF episode , is having SE/Bal inputs
practically all of my recent amps with autoformer gain, where autoformer is replaced with active FE
rails and Iq the same, thus power
ok, in reality maybe a smidgen lower power (active FE being unable to have swing greater than rails), but that's ballpark anyway
my amps of higher power are Singing Bush ( and few future derivatives, follower arrangement) and Babelfish XA252
personally, not chasing higher power, my personal fave and interest being in range of 20-25W max .......... even that being overkill for my own needs
though, who knows where intellectual challenge could lead ....... 2 cells are easily fooled in Overdrive

From how i see things you have quite amazing realization. You must have some help from Mr. Nilsson. 🙂
that's our secret - am I transporting him around on my shoulder ..... or I'm sitting on her shoulder
