MDF vs fiberglass

[Wavy1019]

What looks / sounds the best
I go fiberglass over mdf

[jdmdikk]

my opinion would be fiberglass..below are a few comments that i copied from another site about mdf downsides ..

1..MDF is garbage. It does warp if you don't store it correctly (i.e. level and straight on a rack). Water and moisture destroy it unless you take the types of steps to protect it that most people don't. It has a nasty chemical odor when you cut it that you know can't be good (formaldehyde!). This is something to be used for desperate homeowners on a budget as a short term (read: less than 20 years) remodel, or developers that are churning out McMansions for the ignorant to ogle at.
2.it's toxic and should not be inhaled.

MDF sucks as$

MDF sounds best but glass you can do anything with. If you are doing a custom box make a mdf box them make a glass shell. Best of both worlds. Also if you are worried about the fumes that come from cutting mdf and smoke your a dipshit...not pointing a finger but seriously smoking is bad for you n stuff.

MDF for sound is much better, but fiberglass works for show.
