I have done quite a bit of reading about DIY speaker building and one thing that is almost universal is the use of MDF or some type of higher quality plywood. Why isn't regular hardwood used? Why don't speaker manufacturing companies use hardwood? Almost all of the manufacturers use MDF. I would guess it's a matter of cost.

Hi
Im looking at a new turntable in the $2k range, maybe a touch more with cartridge, possibilities that are stocked locally are
Rega P5
VPI Scout
Nottingham ( innerspace I think )
Roksan Radius 5
Music hall 9.1
Im leaning towards the Nottingham or VPI just because they look better engineered and normally its better to buy a lower end product from a company than its top of the range.
Any thoughts on major pros/cons, ive got a feeling that they are all good product and its just going to come down to preference.
Thanks
Alan
