[QUOTE="zane, post: 377924, member: 540617"] VC Baltic Birch Plywood works excellent for building speaker enclosures. In fact, many prefer it to MDF as it is a bit lighter, and easier to work with. Also, doesn't create near as much sawdust as MDF. Density wise, it is equal to MDF. Several of us on SIN are using the Birch Plywood now for our own enclosures with great success. Only downside is, it is slightly more costly. Home Depot, Menards, Lowes, all usually carry VC Baltic Birch Plywood. Particle Board usually isn't the best to use on enclosures, as it is somewhat porous. However, I personally believe that with a coat or two of resin, and a coat of Auto Body grade clear coat, that it works just as well as MDF. [/QUOTE]
