Like all else in this hobby, everybody has their favorite, and wonders why anyone else would like something different than their personal ideal. You'll HAVE to make up your own mind through experience, and there are no shortcuts to experience.
I've never seen a sweep test of a sealed design that didn't have a hump in the upper bass (around 100 Hz). Yes, the rolloff is usually 12 dB/octave below that, but with an open baffle design, the rolloff is only 6 dB/octave. The rolloff of the bass doesn't determine quality, in and of itself.
