Electrocompaniet EW-75 question


I just got this aw75 to drive my Thiel 3.5'sI listen to rock/metal mostly.My room is 20x14x8I play it loud but still have decent headroom.I have not sent it into clipping or even a hint of strain.This combo does not play real loud to begin with.When I push it to its max but still below clipping the amp shuts down.No warning,no noise,nothing.It just turns off very politely.After 2 minutes the light in the power switch clicks back on and the red light comes back on and then all is well.This happens everytime I push it.I have the EC-75 owners manual and there is no mention of a thermal overload protectant circuit in the amp.Here's another grmlin...At times the right channell breaks up and will cut out.When this happens the amp shuts down.

Do you have skimpy speaker wire? Many years ago, on my first "system", I had this problem and solved it with a better guage of wire. (Granted, it was very skimpy wire!)
