Wow, do they really only go down to 130Hz? what kind of speakers are they? I would do some frequency sweeps with avia and see where they start to drop off. If they do indeed only go down to around 130Hz, than you should set your crossover at 150Hz on your receiver.

What options do you have? I would set it to 120Hz.
