Improving the LSiC

Has anyone tried placing the LSiC on top of a subwoofer, then using speaker level inputs to crossover the sub to the LSiC at around 120hz? I am thinking of doing this to make the LSiC sound a little less 'small'. Going to try it with an LFM-2 and an MBM-12... just curious if anyone else has experimented with using a sub with a high crossover in that way.

    My LSiC sits on top of my PSW1000, which is in the the front and middle of the TV. The LSiC is set to large, the PSW runs off the front pre-amp outputs, and it is set aound 80HZ (I think).

    Anyway, the point is the LSiC sounds great and blends in perfectly with the front LSi15s.
