    uhh... neither do i :)... it stands for Medium Density Fiberboard, so it'll be near all the particulate lumber (like plywood)... it's essentially made of sawdust and glue, so it's smooth and it blows up like a balloon when you touch it with water...

    babelfish says "panel de fibras de madera medio de la densidad" is the translation... that help?

    That's a funny translation...
    Once the box is built how can I test it?

    um... stand on it? put the sub in it and enjoy?

    oh, yeah, terminals... you can do it the fancy way and cut out a hole somewhere on the top or front or left side (NOT into the vent, please), and mount a terminal cup into there... glue it and caulk it just like the other seams... or you can do it the ghetto way by just drilling a hole in any of those spots, running the wire through there, and caulking the hole... i prefer the former...

    that's about right, i think, for a 4'x8' sheet, so if you think that's the stuff, go for it... do you have something i can examine online to ensure it's the right thing? or did you find it in a store?
