The unwanted jolt is scrambling your component's digital brains. In Eric's case, a protective procedure is activated, but in your case it seems the current overload is too much, and the component can't even execute this "program". Turning your component off and on again is like rebooting your computer after it crashes. There was another thread recently about static electricity -- would be good to find it. The solution will be in controlling or dissipating the static before you get to your component.
Krell HTS and static electricity?
The last year that I've had my HTS, there have been some weird problems with static elec. When I walk across my living room to put in a new dvd, the static off of my body makes my hts go crazy. I need to turn it off then on again to get anything to work. I've also re-booted it several times but the problem seems to come back. Please help!!
