[QUOTE="RobGMN, post: 8889142, member: 683408"] [I]"They're all fixated of wood qualities - weight, durability, etc."[/I] That's a big part of the discussion of using ply vs MDF. Both can be used to make very good, very sturdy boxes that don't impart their own sound or color the sound (the goal of building a good box). Someone, somewhere, has a list of the equivalent thicknesses between the two woods. If I recall, the rule was that the ply can be thinner than the MDF, but no idea by what ratio. 3/4" ply = 1" MDF is in my head, but I can't swear to it. [/QUOTE]
