Also..."saving weight" and good subwoofers enclosures don't really go together. You want the wood to be acoustically dead, and that takes mass and bracing

So you're saying go with a Butterworth that is in-between those two volumes?
Also, I know that the best setups are going to be pretty heavy, but I like to autoX my car you know... 
I did a search for lightweight and someone mentioned the birch ply, so I presume it is just as good as MDF?
Also, to save me searching some more, is there any other stuff I can buy at Home Depot at the same time that I will need for the enclosure? Thanks.
Squeak, I am going more for SQ, but only "right of middle" so to speak - I wouldn't mind a decent output either.
