Generally the crossover point will be about 80-100Hz. As they break in you will probably need to adjust it. CAUTION! It is very easy to overdo the adjustments. VERY small movements (about 1-2 mm)will make enough difference once you are close. Too much volume or too high a crossover will muddy up the image and cause your soundstage to collapse.
Even with new or upgraded components it can use some tweaking. The speakers are like a microscope in a lab. You will be able to "see" differences that were hidden before.
Also try the following: Get a pair of 1-2 (1 Female / 2 Male)RCA plugs at Radio Shack or Best Buy. For each channel install them so that both the Left and Right inputs to the plate amps are used. It is not supposed to make a difference but it does. With the entire amp being used your volume position on the plate amps should be a bit lower than without this trick.
