I try and use 15mm as anything less tends to split alot when screwing into it even with pilot holes!
I always use 15mm or 18mm for the actuall boxes and then 12mm or 15mm for the rest of it!

we are using 18mm for the speaker boxes, but the subs are 1000w RMS each. False floor is bout half thatsize to save weight.
