Receiver has been trouble free for several years with no changes made to how it is hooked up. Lately, after listening for aprox 10-15 min at around 1/4 volume I loose the ability to control it with the remote. I cannot adjust the volume, or change modes...nothing with the remote. However, I can adjust anything directly from tne receiver except it cannot be turned off at the power button. It must be unplugged from the wall. When this happens I noticed the receiver is quite hot to the touch. I do regain control when the unit cools down. They fan is working, however, I'm not sure it is on when this happens. The fan seems to be controlled by the volume k**b. It appears to turn on with the volume k**b adjusted to half the max volume. It doesn't seem to turn on when the receiver reaches a given temperature. Any suggestions?
