Wood vs Acrylic Shelves


I'm considering changing my shelves for my audio rig. I was wondering if anyone's done any comparisons with wood (specifically maple) and acrylic for shelving material. The difference in sound between solid maple (especially the stuff from Mapleshade - which DOES sound better than lumber yard maple) and MDF is substantial. I'm just wondering if anyone's done a side by side between the two.

Thanks!

Wood sounds better...acoustic musical instruments are made of mostly wood, wood speakers sound better, wood floors sound great compared to concrete or other dead material etc..
