What are your opinions on these types of boxes. Can they sound good if tuned proparly and are they loud at all? I ran WinISD on a few subs using this typ of box design and the graphs show me the kind of bass that i like. Deep, low, and powerful.

The more complicated the box, the easier it is to make it sound horrible.
A bandpass box is generally known for being poorly done, and only good in narrow range of frequencies. Basically, a bass bumping box. I'm not saying it can be done well, and fitted into a great system, just that it's usually not.
Sealed or a low tuned ported box can you give the deep and low with a much simpler design and overall better SQ.

6th order is EXTREMELY hard to design and build. You won't see manufacturers recommend them because they're so hard to build. If they're just a hair off, you risk blowing the cones straight out of the subs. That's not exaggeration, either.
