High End Mini Monitor Cabinet Material?

I often fantasize designing speakers. My latest thought is a mini monitor about the size of the Wilson Tune Tot. It's meant to be all out except for size, of course, one that if commercial(I have no thoughts of getting involved with that though) that would compete in the Tune Tot price area. That demands a super cabinet. One thought is Panzerholz wood which could be magic given the small dimensions. But Panzerholz wood is expensive and probably would have to be in ported. Plus I'm sure given its density it must be a bear to work with.

I'd at least like something denser than HDF. I recall the original Wilson WATT used Corian although he added lead weights inside to dampen some resonances. A simpler solution would be preferable. Does anyone have thoughts on super cabinet materials available in this country? Thanks for any and all thoughts.
