G,

YOu are wasting time here. I don't doubt you that it might sound better. But honestly if you are going to use 2 amps get an active crossover and do it right. THe passive crosses on maggies suck. They really do and you can get a cheap but decent behringer crossover for less than 3 bills.

YOu probably can't make that work with your integrated and extra power amp setup unless you just have one source....preferably digital.

Go to the maggie forum (planar forum) and do a search for behringer crossover and look for posts by gymwear for instance.

FWIW, I have spent a bit on my maggies and can tell you that the passive crossovers are easily improved with minimal expense, and that experience has lead me to conclude that messing with the passives is just a waste of time, and one should be active biamping...which I rewired my maggies to accomodate:
