I don't know much about RF because, well, I don't like them, so I don't know what they sound better in. However, I would lean toward a sealed box. Typically sealed boxes sound cleaner and produce tighter bass, while bandpass boxes are muddy but produce lower and more bass.

If im not mistaken doesn't a bandpass produce jsut a certain freq louder but below the tuning freq theres very little output. Ive also herd its hard to get them to blend with the mids and tends to be really boomy. Also tempermental to box volumes. Sq sealed spl bandpass.
