My biggest bird came in to a sassafras box with a cherry lid, so I guess that it's my favorite.

Maple over Walnut
Maple over Cedar
Walnut over Cypress
Cherry over Butternut

Oh heck there are just too many good sounding combos to have a best. *up*
The ones I listed are shortbox combos.  I won't even get into longbox combos. ;D
