Glenn,
Then what is Tom going to use since you eliminated everything else? Do not
repair it? Hunt for NLA originals? I have used subs many times without any
problems. You just have to make sure the bias is adjusted properly as some
subs will not let you do this, find the sub that does while maintaining the
minimum or better ratings. Avoiding fakes is always a problem. Yes,
replacing the drivers is a good policy. Occasionally I substituted the
drivers so that the subbed outputs can be biased properly when proper
outputs are not available. FET subs have other requirements including
maximum capacitance to keep from reducing the high frequency response.
