Aleph 2 project burning problem

Hello,

i am building an Aleph 2, and have a problem:

At the moment i power up the amp:

R11 and R12 are burning up in flames.
Q3 breaks, Z5 also.

The rest of the board seems to be ok.

I tested this two times, thought i had a defect Q3 while assembling the board. But it was the same effect.

The schematics (and the part numbers) are the same as in the original Pass documentation. I checked everything about 5 times and can´t see the mistake i made.
My rail voltages are a bit higher than in the originals, i have +-49V instead of the +-45V. Can this 4V more cause the Problem? (I don´t think so)

Now i am absolutely out of ideas what the problem could be and ask you for your help.

I attached my schematics and board layout.

Regards, Martin
