The FET's are sandwiched between the underside of the PCB and the metal base-plate (heat-sink), so the back of the module is just the base-plate. Even removing the base-plate would only show the back of the FET's, not the part numbers. If that is what you are after, you would need to de-solder them from the board.

However, not all Class D amps are offered as cheaply as many probably think.

But how these > $3K models might compare in actual listening tests with those audioscience.com and those above have reviewed would be very useful.
