You are using a separate crossover (Clarion) in conjunction with the built-in crossovers on the units?  If so, use just one.  If you're using a separate crossover, feed it with a full range signal.  That would mean that the units' xovers have to be defeated.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
