cayin iha-6 mk2 amp malfunction

Hey guys, I own a cayin iha-6 mk2 amp and it had been working great until recently. After between 3-6 min of music it suddenly stops working and the white light on the knob flashes. Even when i unplug my amp and plug it back in the issue persists. Only when i close my computer and reboot it does it work, which leads me to believe that the issue may be with my DAC and not the amp? When I tried looking up on the manual it just says that rapid flashing means theres a machine malfunction. Hope someone could shed some light into why this is suddenly happening.

Thank goodness for protection circuits. Sometimes the 30 sec delay is annoying, but now you gotta love it.

VAS, Steve Leung, knows about Cayins.

 

Did you try a different source directly to the Cayin?

If all you have is your DAC, You can use headphone out of your computer with mini-rca to rca size adapter and play the PC
