Recently restored an HK citation 17 preamp. Been running fine but recently the relay switch on the output board died. I took it out of the circuit and the unit runs OK.
Problem is I have transient DC (~1VDC) at the outputs on turn on/off that is no longer protected by the relay.
I have two questions:
1) is that normal for the preamp to have such high transients or should I be looking for a problem?
2) the relay is a 24V reed 2-pole which from what I gather is no longer available. Any body have insight into a replacement?
Thanks for the help and can post schematics if needed

If I recall the lead coming off of Q1 and going to the relay measured around .55V when unit was powered on. I thought maybe it was wrong as schematic showed 2.3V if I am reading correctly. But it would be more re-assuring if it was supposed to be closer to .6V
