How to check my preamp for a DC leak


Hello,

After posting in a previous thread about my amp cutting out every now and then, it was suggested to me that mu preamp may have a DC leak.

I bought myself a multimeter, but I'm not sure how to check for a DC leak. Would anyone be able to tell me where the leads should be connected, and whether I need signal coming into the pre to test for this?

Thanks for the explanation. If this cutting out is only happening intermittently (e.g. every few hours or so), should I be able to measure elevated DC levels at all times, or only when the unit is causing a problem in my system?
Any thoughts on my last question? If anyone knows the answer to this, it would be much appreciated!
