Wood vs Fiberglass

Use solid birch, not birch plywood..Having worked in a lumberyard that sold LOTS of birch plywood, and now working in a hardware store that sells smaller pieces of birch wood and plywood, and also having made enclosures out of both AC and birch plywood, as well as MDF, I can say with utmost confidence that the birch plywood still has all the acoustical downsides of using conventional plywood (slate center core, plus weak glue at certain points = resonance and buzzing). If you want solid wood thats strong, light, and non-resonant, and if solid birch is harder to come by in your area, you can substitute poplar.
