Obviously, I am in the camp that believes that crossing over your mains with a high pass has advantages over running the mains full range and just adding the subwoofer. I believe the JL audio unit did this better than any others. For the price anyway
I biamped my system with the monoblocks high passing to the Vectors at 80 Hz and a distributed base array picking up a low pass also at 80 Hz. While there are other crossovers out there, Marchand, Pass Labs, and others, I felt the CR-1 provided the best quality and features. Infinite crossover points, volume control, A-B switching (with/ without subs), and "damping", which allows one to control the bandwidth of the crossover point. It only has second and fourth order slopes and they have to be the same which is a little disappointing but certainly not a dealbreaker. I use Dayton SA 1000 subwoofer amps which provide a little more control over the final sound.
