Active line level crossover with subwoofer out - HELP


Hi.

Helping my friend with another challenge. 
Looking for a line level crossover. His preamp does not have a subwoofer out.

What he wants to do is have a high pass filter between the preamp and his power amp. This so his Spendor BC1’s are spared anything below 40 or 50hz. And, the crossover needs a low pass filter to spare the subwoofer the high frequencies. 
Thoughts? 
Thanks!

Doing this when it's quiet is important, or you'll try to EQ your air conditioner.  :-)

Using OmniMic or Room EQ Wizard can be a lot easier and faster than attempting to us an SPL meter though.

Love the lava lamp in the .../systems/8367. ;)   Must be a system tweak not considered before...🤔

DSP makes the miserable space I've been relegated to employ as a 'listening area' (I'd be hard pressed to call it a 'room') tolerable....so my  bias is obvious, and enough said.

Exactly.  Sure, we all want to be purists, but the reality is that EQ works.

A light hand, focusing on the most terrible problems in the bass, along with fully thought out speaker integration is a good thing.
perkri, you started another uplifting debate with your simple question :-)

Your friend can also e.g try the blusound node2 streamer/dac which has a sub out before the pre amp. Or the Martin Logan/Paradigm P AMP which I recommend because then you also get the ARC room correction system. The P AMP is fine for driving smaller speakers at normal SPLs. Actually I use it for both Tannoy DC10A and ATC 19 for near-field listening (not exactly small).

To the P AMP you may then connect 28 subs for a really decent bass...
