Tom,

As our business name implies Audio is something we see a lot of.
I learned a very long time ago NOT to use ECG/NTE subs in an audio
aplication, particularly for outputs.
You will probably see it back again with the same transistors shot, along
with a bunch of others that were not the first time.
BTW, When replacing outputs you should always at least replace the drivers
whether they measure good or not as a kind of walking wounded situation
often exists with them.
Its up to you if you want to chance it, and who knows, you might get
lucky.....but I wouldnt.
As far as the 1302/3281 nte subs...no.....dont use them. In my experience
with them, they will fail, as I had some on hand when the jap originals were
out of stock.
I used them and paid the price 3 days later. Never again.
Hope this gives you a definitive answer to your question.
