Mating Quad 2905's with crossover and subs?


I love the 2905's, but I can't take their dynamic or bass limitations. Has anyone got any experience with crossing the quads say with a pair of REL's and a crossover (a Bryston Xover is what I'm thinking)? If so, what were your impressions, and at what frequency did you Xover to the subs?
I'm thinking I could get the dynamics out of the quads, if I were to pass the lows to the subs, and let the subs handle the bottom.
Any thoughts, remarks, impressions, or advice would be greatly appreciated :-) !

Thanks for the responses. I have tried the ML's (Summit X's). They played LOUD, clean and deep, but I didn't hear the magic that I hear with the Quads.
I used to own Maggie 3.6's, with a REL Storm III (no xover, I ran the Maggies full range) I didn't have a problem integrating the sub with the panels, so I think I can integrate a REL with the Quads.
What I'm trying to accomplish, is being able to play music (with that Quad magic) at Spl's higher than 90db. I'm not a headbanger, but I do like my music at realistic levels. I was hoping that if I could relieve the Quads from the bass frequencies, that I could get more volume.
