First of all- Hey Brit! What up girlie?

As for your question- your power supply (internal amp) on your deck has gone bad. The static is due to stress on the internal amp, especially when you turn it up. The amp is going out, losing its efficiency and output. When it cuts out, it's more than likely going into thermal protection. If the deck is still under warranty, this will be covered. If not, you can probably have it fixed for around $100, including R&I.

If you're getting a new deck, I love my Kenwood Excelon. It's made with better components than most of the other stuff out there. The Pioneer Premiers are very comparable (but make sure you stick the Excelon and Premier). Alpine also makes a good deck, as does Eclipse (but I've never been a big fan of the Eclipse). Eclipse is NOT the best sounding deck out there- Nakamichi is. They look fairly stock, but they sound better than anything else on the market.
