Any thoughts on which Heresy sound best, the plywood or finished?  I have the opportunity to purchase the plywood version and I rarely see them.

I would focus on what is inside. I prefer versions with K55 and K77 to those with drivers from Forte.

There were probably more raw birch Heresy Is made that any other.  Since the "finished" H Is are also made from plywood, there should be no difference in sound. 

 

MDF cabinets may not be as strong as plywood, but are strong enough and non-resonant.  Better to buy the sound you like in the condition you want and ignore the material.
