Amp shut off and came back again.

I was cranking up the volume and suddenly my amp briefly shut off and resumed again. It took less than a second.
Does it mean my amp is going to die soon?
Thx

I was listening in class A mode with much bigger than normal level, and the amp got hot. lt has just about 2” from the top. Probably I need a taller rack. Thanks again.
