Anyone know of good active crossovers?

I have a powered sub but can bypass the crossover section to use an active crossover. My problem is meshing the sub to the mains which is a little difficult when the mains are running full range and the sub is being cut off at a steep slope. I'm on a limited budget. I was just wondering if anybody knew of any bang for the buck active crossovers for say $200 or less used or new. If they degrade the sound too much at that price I won't bother. Is there anything at that price to really improve my situation?

Thanks,
J

I have about a dozen home audio electronic crossovers. The best crossovers are quite expensive but worth the money if you have a high resolution system. At the price point of $100 to around $250, I use The RH Labs, Energy EAC, and Sumo Delilah and they are all very good for their price point. I do not own a Paradigm the other members recommended but have also heard it is a good unit and the Ashley is supposed to be decent if modified from it's original form. I'm guessing the Energy EAC is the best value (made in Canada) and is designed by a reputable speaker company so I would put them on my short list if I were you.

E-mail me if you like.
