You might have a bad speaker or a speaker wire going to ground. It may also be an internal problem with the built in amplifier. Either case, it seems that the deck is either going into protection or outright turning off. If it is outright turning off, ensure that you have a solid ground and power connections. IE: don't just use scotch tape to hold the wires together.
