I've just read a review ( not in WHF ) of the new JBL 4305P, where I was informed that the cabinet was made from 6.35mm MDF !
WHAT !! Can anyone shed any light on this 1/4 " construction - is it even correct ? ( Sounds more like a glorified cardboard box ! ).
It makes my 20-year old Mission 750LEs - made of 19 and 30mm MDF - looks positively over-engineered !

Maybe they've joined the thinwall construction brigade, using MDF as a cheaper alternative to birch ply 🙂
More likely someone's quoted a headphone socket dimension in the wrong place.
(Seems a bit too specific to be a figure for MDF width).

This review says 3/4”, so take your pick! However that seems pretty plausible to me.

Now that sounds more like it, Nopiano !
( Note to self - stick to WHF for reviews, not HFC )
