For my HT 7.1 following setup I have made :
1.Set all Speakers to 80 hz
2.Set Center and side Surround speakers to small from Receiver.
3.set Subwoofer to 60 hz
What else I should do to get better bass on ht?I am replacing my
subwoofer soon,thinking about SVS PCI ULTRA!!Also is there any conflict on crossover?How can I calibrate my speaker's?

Get a RadioShack SPL meter and AVIA Disc to calibrate your system.
To my understanding if you are setting Xover to 80Hz in the receiver there is no need to set the Xover on your sub. If there is a switch on the sub to disable the Xover then disable it otherwise set it to 80Hz
Speakers=>Salk Soundscape 8, Soundscape Center,Surrounds-Dali Rubicon LCR, Lsi7
PreAmp, Amp => Marantz AV8801, ATI 6007 amp, Oppo HA-1 DAC

Sub - JTR Captivator S2 (Dual 18")

if you get a new sub you could set your mains to small
let the amp on the sub take care of driving the low notes
they should have a medium setting;) -

If I am reading you correctly, the sub X-over is the only one set stragely. Depending on the model of what you are using for the processor, you ought to set the sub X-over as high as possible to keep you from doubling up on the X-over.
When you set the sub X-over, was it in the processor or on the sub itself?There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin -

Go to 100Hz. Since you ar feeding the sub from a low pass filter from the other channels already, you don't want a second x-over at the same spot. This can cause a dip in your frequency response around the X-over location.
What exactly are you trying to solve though? What type of reciever are you using?
With the 12's, I would set your X-over on speakers @ 60 and your sub at 100Hz and see how that works for you.There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction.
