I've never known you to offer an opinion that wasn't backed by science and I'm very curious to know about what probably amounts to MDF vs. most any solid hardwood? I don't really have an opinion one way or another but I do believe that my solid maple shelves have an influence on the sound of my CD player.
Another issue you touched upon, cabinet size: are low frequencies not concerned with standing waves? You see a lot of sub-woofer designs of 18X18X18 and 24X24X24, etc. My P'itanic is 22.5 cubed.
I don't hear any particular note boom and distortion seems very low. Why is that?
