I have 40 inches in length, and 22 inches in depth to work with...could anyone give me some tips on how to tune the port to 32hz and make a box to fit that space? Thanks.

its verry handy when you build your own boxes.

the calculator program that's easiest to use imo is made by "amatt", and it's basically an excel spreadsheet, very self explanitory and easy to use, and pretty darn accurate as well, search the forum for it, it's not hard to find

make sure you build it strong and airtight, and if its not quite, use some glass in the corners and some bracing, a strong box is a good box.
