What are you using the amps for? This will determine what kind of crossover you need.

I am using the amps to run 2 12inch subs

So if you're running both amps for your subs, you'll need a subwoofer crossover (or use the LP crossover on the amps.) If you run another amp for your mains, you'll need to run it off a high-pass crossover (or use the HPF on the amp.) Is this what you want, or are you looking for brand name recomendations?

Ok, I looked at my amps and I understand the lp crossover for my subs what kind of amp do you think i should get for my mains ($200). Can i run my midbass drivers and front speakers from this amp and my tweeters from my head unit?
