I see....
So upon further inspection of Saeman's pictures...they seem to have a 3/4" Birch baffle & 1" PB sides/back.
In 2008/9...is MDF better than PB for this purpose or is there some other reason to use a particle board?
Thanks for the info.

JBL used to use particle board, but by the 80's like most everyone else they switched to MDF.

It would seem that based on this secondhand account of a study comparing cabinet materials, it would make sense to use MDF for the main cabinet and use plywood for the dog house.
