you are playing too loud or your speaker impedence is dropping too low or the 5700 is faulty.

You don't say what speakers are connected but most likely they are the problem. If their impedence falls too low (less than 2 ohms) they draw too much power as you turn up the volume and trip the protection circuits.

Turning the 5700 off lets it cool off and reset. I doubt a fan will do any good until you fix the speaker problem.
