    Yes the Crown is driving the sub and everything below 90Hz goes to the sub everything above 90Hz goes to the Polk's .. so the sub isn't running full range .. if that is what you ment

    As I said, 90 hz is waaay too high a crossover point for a single sub to prevent localization. You would need to set it more like 50 hz or so. Running dual subs allows you to run them that high and not compromise the image.

    I love Dynaudio, but I also have a pair of Vienna Acoustics Schoenberg. I wonder how do you guys fell about these? I couldn't find any reviews on them.

    They sound pretty good to me but they are used as rears so I can't really tell.
    Setup:
    Rotel RSP 1570 Preamp
    Front & Center: Parasound Halo A53
    Surround: Parasound New Classic 5125
    Dynaudio - Customized Fronts 5 way (Similar to Contour S 5.4), Bi-Amp
    B&W Nautilus HTM1 Center
    Dynaudio Contour 1.1 Surround Backs
    Vienna Acoustics Schonberg Surround Sides A.
    Dynaudio Audience 52SE Surround Sides B.
    Vienna Acoustics Subson Subwoofer.
    Dynaudio Active Sub 500.
    Tara Labs Prism speaker wires.
    Audioquest Interconnects
    Tripplite Power Conditioner

    90Hz is not to high? ... your bookshelf's are running all way down to 50Hz? ... you can only hear down to 20Hz why would you crossover so low? you want a 6 inch driver playing all the way down to 50hz? doesn't make sense to me ... can you please explain
