   What a stupid statement. VERY few musical instruments use MDF, (when was   
   the last time you saw a Piano made from MDF?) and even many good speaker   
   boxes use plywood rather than MDF.   
   In any case the sound from a speaker should come from the cone, not the   
   box, and apart from it's obvious drawbacks, concrete is far better than   
   MDF for speakers, so MDF can hardly be "best" for anything.   
   Acceptable, perhaps.
