This Hitachi plays sometimes for hours and just shuts down. When this happens you will not be able to turn the set back on unless you unplug from the A/C. Turn it back on and then hours later the same thing. Checked for loose connections and bad regulation but turned up nothing. The likelyhood of my finding the problem is pretty low here and I was wondering of anyone knows of any problems that can cause this in this unit? Thanks in advance for any info.
