In order for us to tell you what kind of box you should run we would need to know your listening preferences.

If you go sealed use 3.5-4.5 cubes

If you run it Ported use 5-5.5 cubes with about 40SQ in of port opening

6-7 @ 32hz thats what I would run,

at 32 hz you will have the best of both worlds, 35hz would be the highest tuning i would take it for Daily


But tuning is realy Personal Preferance Honestly, and no one on hear can realy say its not,

eh the sonance works very well in smaller enclosures. 5.5 cubes tuned to 34 would be my answer
