A huge ported box would do just fine, and from what I've heard, they are much easier to tune!

Any idea on size for the box? Might do 8-15's just for the hell of it.

Definitely ported. Astros and ported enclosures go together like PB&J.

Build as big of a box as you can fit. Most astros will like a box 20-40 cubes depending on port dimensions.
We did a Astro with 60 cubes, 1200 sq/in of port tuned to 39 hz with little power about 10k did just under a 161

I was think 30-40 cubes tuned around 35Hz. just want one hell of a ground pounder. Thought about a bandpass design but no insight as of yet.
