Using a 2073D dual op amp in a Acapulco Gold type circuit?
I have a couple of these NJM2073D chips lying around and had seen them cited as similar to a LM386. These dual op amp chips are normally used as stereo amplifiers or in a btl configuration, but is there any reason I wouldn't be able to use one 2073 in place of the two LM386's in this schematic for an Acapulco Gold clone?

I know the real answer is to just go for it, but I thought I'd field some opinions on here while I put together the layout.
