TacT users- Help

Recently purchased a TacT 2.0S from a fellow Agon'er and had a chance to set it up in the recently constructed dedicated room. WOW WOW WOW these devices really are amazing. THe challenge I am facing, and do not believe to be insurmountable is, using the TacT with a pair of monitor speakers and a REL Storm. The Rel is hooked up to the Amp with the speakon connection.
Have not seen a published approach to this application. I recently learned that one should not set the low freq cut off on the TacT at the low end of the Rels response. I am thinking set the Rel's X over the same freq as the monitors roll off at, or maybe 5-10 htz higher, and turn the volume level up so it is just noticeably higher than normal. This should keep the monitors from being over drivem in the low freqs cause the Tact would be cutting the low freqs and not boosting them. Am I on base with this train of thought?
Thanks for insoght on this fellas.

Thanks Samujohn,
Just to confirm- Cut the sub off at it's -3db point via the TacT setting. I should leave the speakon hookup in place and set the REL x-over high (perhaps at the -3db point as well) with the volume turned up to keep the TacT from boosting these frequencies thereby allowing the REL to do the low freq work and freeing the monitors up from low freq demands. After hearing how the TacT cleans up the bass I sure would hate to lose this advantage; but I would hate to cook another driver!
Thanks for your attention.
