Just remember that the plate amp in the 2Wq has a build in first order boost from 80Hz on down, so for best results you should feed the mains with a first order roll off from 80 Hz on down. FWIW, Aesthetix makes some amps that have built in crossovers that are intended to work well with the Vandy subs.

I hope someone more tech-savvy than I am can shed some light: would it be possible to replace the proprietary x-2 crossover with a high-pass filter generated by the parametric EQ of a DSP engine? I tried to roll-over 6db/octave at around 80Hz, and it seems to work -- but I don't know if that could potentially damage the subwoofer.
Thank you in advance,
