My AP8.9 started to act weird after 4 years of use. After a longer drive and listening in low volume (actually it doesn't matter how high volume of reproduced audio is), AP8.9 starts to mute itself for exactly 10 min then plays 20 min and exactly after the 20 min period elapses it mutes itself off for another 10 min and it goes around again and again....

When I disconnect the main power of the unit it resets itself and plays ok, but after a while it again cycles 20/10/20/10... I upgraded to the latest firmware and also reset to defaults and configured it from scratch, but nothing seems to solve the problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks

Did you happen to catch what the status light was doing when it stops playing?

Valid point, unfortunately not as I have installed AP8.9 in hardly accessible location, although I was thinking about it to check the status light. I will do so and report back. Thanks

So, today I checked error code of the status light and when AP8.9 stops playing there is constant red light ON with blue light blinking in addition to it in 1s period. I recorded it and uploaded it on youtube. Any ideas would highly be appreciated.

Weird, seems like the closest light status would be the flashing RED/BLUE. I would remove the amp and inspect it to make sure the upgrade mode switch isn't on. Otherwise, it looks like it might have to go back to the dealer or Audison. I've never seen one do that.

I contacted Audison in Italy - Elettromedia, but first of they diverted me to a local dealership which couldn't help, so I contacted them once again but my query was ignored. I will check everything once again and report back here if I learn something new.

So I received email from Audison and fixed 20-10-20 problem. I had to change one parameter "SLEEP TIMER" in AP8.9 settings as below. That fixed this issue, although I still have random delays when I turn the AP8.9 on. Will update if I solve that one as well.
