Peaveys internal crossover is set at 150Hz or so, they don't really say, that's a bit high in my experience and allows for positioning of the bass box. Not that big of a minus but still. One other thing is that it would mean that the XLS would need to power the tops, that would put one crossover on the tops and one on the sub, unless you're thinking of using the boxes natural frequency responce falloff as a crossover?

I am not using this amp for anything else. Just for the sub. Is this ok? I have a different amp that I am using for the tops only. Is the Crossover Mode(Input Y XOVER) going to be ok for this purpose. I am using 1 input to Ch.1 on the amp(nothing connected to ch. 2 input). I am using the ch.1 bannana output of amp to go straight to my sub. I do not plan on connecting anything to ch.2 output.Is this setup giving 300w to my sub?

Crossovers frequencies are always dictated by the speakers used. Checking the PV118 specs, we learn that the unit has an internal crossover built-in, so the use of another crossover is not absolutely needed. If you decide to use the one in the amp anyway, it should be set by auditionning the system and deciding what sounds best to you.
I did try to bypass the amps crossover, but the subs internal crossover just doesnt seem to cut out much mids/highs, that's why I am using tha amps crossover. Does this setup Crossover Mode(Input Y XOVER) seem like the best way to run the sub? If I run the amp in bridge mode, wouldn't that be way to much power, and possibly blow the sub?
