I've always tuned my boxes to 35hz. 30-35hz is generally what you want to tune to.

Around the tuning fq, you will have up to 3db increase in sound over a sealed box which means that in the sealed box, your amplifier would have to be putting out twice as much power to produce the same volume.

There are more pros than cons to using a properly built and tuned ported box, but try for yourself and see what suits you better.
