Definetly use MDF cheap and easy to work with, the best density to work with is 18mm hope this helps

mdf is the one that everyone uses, if you can and you can afford it go for 3/4" expensive plywood, the accoustic properties of this stuff is great, to be perfectly honest you prob wont notice the difference, so go for mdf

gogogadget is the best one to speak to mate he just done his install and it sound and looks the buisness its dead important to get the right size volume boxes for the speakers if you dont like i did then when you turn ya sound more than half way up it starts to sounds c..p and distorts, I think if ya speak nice enough he might tell you the sizes you need as i think he has a book on boot builds. If ya planning on covering it in fabric go to abacan fabrics tramere they have a leather look material which is dead cheep and they have it in all sort of colours and it looks sweet it a change from the usual black fabric ya see.
