Crossover selection for subwoofer

From experience, can anyone tell me what is generally the best crossover setting for a REL sub in use with Sonus faber grand Pianos?

I recall Richard Vandersteem talking about how a subwoofer needs crossing over an octave above the main speakers -6db lower limit, but I'm not sure about that. Hopefully this will get you started. Happy Hearing, Keith
