I've seen faulty amps do this with instabilty causing high frequency oscillation that you can't hear... Thing to do is to get a power meter that measures the current on the mains and see what current is drawn with NO input signal and with speakers connected/not connected - see what differences there are. I'd get the amp checked out. It shouldn't cut out unless you are seriously over-heating it (which sounds unlikely from what you've said) or driving it into clipping (again - it would have to be running flat out for that to make it cut-out regularly).
