NAD 326 BEE shuts off at random. Any ideas?

I recently bought a NAD 326BEE mail order. I'm pleased with the sound quality: it's full bodied and the bass seems more extended than that of the amp I was using before. However it has a habit of shutting off at random moments. Then I hit the On button on the remote and it comes back though often not for long! The amp runs hot even when there's no signal, but I never drive it hard. It shuts off even when cold. From googling I get the feeling that I am not alone. One person suggested the Sleep Timer might be the problem, though I'm thinking it's an error in the protection circuit. I'm wondering how many other people have experienced this. I went to NAD's website but it looks like one of those deals where it's impossible to get a NAD employee to respond to you. The Internet provides companies with the ability to shield themselves from irate customers! |

Sometimes less than ideal connections can cause issues. |
