What speakers are you using?

Apologies for the tardy response

They are Eminent Technology LF8b which is a planar design with a 10" woofer. 

There were two criteria for using 120Hz as a crossover point

The first was the woofer in the speakers is not nearly as fast as the B&W DB1 sub, I experimented from 60Hz in increments and found 120Hz to work the best
The second is that it limits the power the amp has to deliver to the main spkrs
