You don’t actually need the crossover (all the boxes you’re looking at have passives, and to put an active in would ideally require you to re-wire and bypass the passives)…
Pretty good for £2K though – don’t forget that at that power, you will need to run it off at least 2 seperate ring mains in your house (assuming you are in the UK and have standard 13amp domestic supply). As a relatively simple calculation for your requirements, take the KW rating of all amps added together, and multiply by 4 (so your prog rating of 6K needs about 24amps of power).
Like the look of those Turbo boxes though – gonna be building something similar for our rig this winter (having discovered my bass drivers are in the process of kicking their way out of their current boxes – if I’m building boxes, I decided I’m gonna be doubling up too….raaa)
