So I bread boarded some of the hamptone fet sections and have been trying to use them with a bi polar supply. The bi polar supply I am using to test these with does +/-17vdc I've subbed r6 as I only had a 6.8Mohm and r5 as I only had 143 ohm on hand. R5 is still a half watt though. I also subbed the bd139 for a zxt651 as again all had on hand. Anyway when connected to the testing PSU I keep burning out r5. it smokes and dies. Everything else in circuit tests out as working and is wired per the above schematic. I have yet to run audio through it as well r5 keeps smoking and burning out. Any ideas?
