Hi everyone! first post here 
A friend of mine gave me his broken Nakamichi TA3A (stuck in protection mode), and I fixed it by replacing the appropriate resistors with higher capacity units. All was well and it worked like a champ (the sound is amazing!!) for a few months - but now I'm having a different problem.
At completely random times, the amp will power off - and nothing you can do will turn it back on. All you can do is sit and wait for it to decide to switch back on. It usually takes only about a minute, but sometimes it takes hours, one time it took an entire day.
My first thought was, maybe a fuse? maybe something got knocked around when I made the repair? I'm not an electrical engineer but I'm pretty good with a soldering iron.
Any ideas? I love the sound of this amp, and I'm not really in a financial state to drop serious dough on another unit...
Thank you for your time!
