RE: My new Maggie .7s and my SVS SB-1000 sub.... not too great

Full range -- no filter on the Maggies, just like you would do if you did not have a sub.
LP (low pass) filter allows signals lower than the specified frequency to pass and blocks signals above-- it's the setting you use for the sub. A HP (high pass) filter allows signals above the specified frequency to pass (and blocks signals below). Often the bass management system uses a HP filter to restrict the signal to the main speakers to 80 Hz (typical for home theater) and above. As I mentioned, this is a no-no for Maggies.
For completeness a BP (band pass) filter restricts the signal to a range and is typically used for the mid-range driver in a 3-way speaker.
