I mostly see 3/4" mdf, and most of the time double baffle if you've got some heavy subs that get down.

if it aint thick enough, it will flex. too much flex is bad for the essque

Ive always done 3/4" until now. My current box is 1/2", but Ill only be running 5-600wrms tops.

it really depends on the equipment being used. my 12" type-x getting ~1100 is all 3/4 with lots of bracing. my jbl gto802 getting ~200 only uses 1/2" without a problem.
