there is an hdf wood...and it is good quality ...but i wouldn't tune the sub to 60hz unless your wanting to do spl if so make the box half the size of recomended as well

HDF is good, but birch is still superior; it's stiffer and weighs less - though it's relatively expensive.

As far as tuning goes it depends on what you're looking to get out of it. 36Hz is a common tuning and strikes a nice balance between SQ and SPL. 60Hz will probably get loud, but sound like *** doing it. AFAIK people only tune that high to make a burp setup for metering purposes.

Ask him his reasoning for the tuning of 60Hz. If serious or jokingly, I can guarantee that it wont sound good.

Build it with an aeroport and laugh at his sh*tty bass and say I told you so... noob

Then remove the aerport and put a proper and diameter and length in for the fix for proper 36hz tuning.
