Are carbon fiber speaker cabinets inherently better than wood or metal ones


There seems to be a pretty big jump in speaker prices when moving to carbon fiber cabinetry when all else is equal (or what seems like equal). Is this because it is able to be molded into more acoustically correct shapes or simple the characteristics of the material?

It takes a lot of  time and specialized labor to get satisfactory results with carbon fiber compared to applying wood veneer over a MDF box.
