I will be building a cabinet for my front speakers very soon and need some help with making them as dead as possible and making them look decent. I build car audio cabinets primarily so i have the contruction methods down, but i cant just carpet something for home use..
need some ideas on how to make a presentable finish, heard that perhaps i should make the cabinets out of mdf and then put a layer of some sort of plywood over that and finish it, any ideas?? and will 3/4" mdf be dead enough for home use with a 5.25" midwoofer and a ribbon tweet with some bracing..seems like it would be fine with some good braces, but want to be sure, dont want any resonating at all.. really have no clue about this, never had to make a cabinet look nice before...lol..
