Mccormack dna-1 protection problem

Hi
I have a Maccomack dna-1 with no upgades. 
Very often when i play music it goes in protection mode and the red light comes on.
Sometimes it works great for a day or two and somtimes it i hopeless. 
All cables and connectors are ok. I am sure the amplifier is faulty.

Is there sombody with an idea what the problem could be.

+1 Soix.
If you don't get Steve, Pat can help, too.
If you can swing it, try to get the amp upgraded. It is well worth the money.

Yes, that would be a bit of a haul, though they do a lot of work for Japanese/Asian customers, so it is possible.
You can email them at:

They are very responsive. If you have Skype, you can talk directly. 
They are working on a pair of Micro Drive's for me, as I write.

Nothing like being handy with a soldering iron...
You should still call SMcAudio. I am sure Pat or Steve could give you some good advice on what you should replace or modify to benefit sound reproduction. Since you are so handy, they might even ship a new driver board and related parts for minimal cost.

That is great to hear.

-I should try to brush up on my soldering. I haven't held an iron since Junior High School, but I was pretty good when I did.
