Vandersteen 2wq x-over help

Hi. I have a Hovland Sapphire amp and I need to find out the correct values for the x-over. The output imp is 680kOhms. I tried emailing Mr Vandersteen a few weeks ago, but I haven't received an answer; very annoying considering I purchased his product.

So can anyone help please? Thanks.

Further thought is that with a nice Amp like you have
your best served with the Vandersteen 5 A High pass units.
they are available on audiogon in either RCA type or XLR
You can contact me if you have no Vandy dealer and I will coach you through.

All OP wants is the proper starting value for FIXED crossover, folks. As he says
I didn't get WX-2, but I did get a set of 50k resistors.

Swampwalker, Are you familiar with Vandersteen subwoofers?

How low does the speaker you pairing the sub with go?

Thanks for all the responses folks. I'm sorry if I make the occasional technical goof up.

Sambar: My speakers go down to 30 Hz (Fab Audio Model 1)

Rog: Yes. I'm trying to fit the subs into my current system, but I was looking for someone who perhaps had done this already with my model of amplifier and could give me some help.

Johnny : Your suggestion may end up being the best way to go.
