I am looking for a nice wood to make my speaker boxes with. They will be going with the Nat P's as a 1cub ft design if this makes a difference. I want to keep the price of the wood fairly cheap with still getting a pretty grain and a good solid wood. It will be finished a dark red so i could go with a Mahogany or something, but this is a little more than i want to spend. Hoping to keep the price around $50 for a 4'X8' sheet. I saw some baltic birch at the local store and it looks really nice. It was B2 grade (no idea what that means) with 6 layers of plywood. Will this be dense enough for a speaker box assuming i put good supports inside the box?
FYI: i want to stay clear of MDF if i can because i feel it will be too heavy to put on a speaker stand.
Any comments suggestions on the selection of wood?
