Are you seeing a climb in current to the finals also? If so I'd tend to agree
with Mike that it's probably a mismatch that the transistors don't like and
they're warming up. Might try backing the voltage down and deliberately
running a lower current. If the same thing happens at lower voltage/current
that would point different directions than if it only happens at higher
voltage/current.
