I ran the 63s both full range and through the high pass of a Dahlquist LP 1 electronic crossover when I was experimenting with the SMGcs.
In both set ups the SMGcs were crossed at approximately 60 hz.
After a couple of weeks of listening, the SMGcs went back to the back of the basement (storage).
The SMGcs, in some ways, worked better than any of the box woofers I tried, but there were still some problems because the SMGcs needed a serious kick in the buttocks to get moving. This meant I was constantly fiddling with the level controls for the bass amps (Plate amps)
Right now I am back to running the 63s full range by themselves. With a Quad 909, they produce a lot more, and a lot deeper bass than you would expect. What is there is spectacularly clean and well defined, just not much air movement.
The DWM is certainly intriguing...wish somebody would try a pair of them with Quads.
