Crossover suggestion wanted

Uhm, interesting boxes for multimedia use. Note that the first is already a box provided with a passive radiator at the back, like the second which is a little bigger speaker ( 3 ") with higher Xmax and a frontal PR.
So we have two tuned systems; I guess that it's easier to tune one system; one thing to do would be to cut the passive from the first in order to let the response decay naturally and cross it with the sub...woofer.
80 dB sensitivity would easily destroy the possibility to use passive components as they suck energy. Indeed, those components are designed to be used with line level active stages and with 2X 10 W + 20 W amplifiers.
 

Interesting devices. Probably better for an active application but why not to try also a passive approach. No baffle correction nor box resonace calculations needed, everything is in the characteristics from datasheets. Just paste and design. fc=~650Hz, 12dB/oct. And the result: relatively flat response within 100Hz-13kHz band (+-2dB), f6: ~65Hz, sensitivity ~78dB. This doesn't seem to be attractive at first glance, but it has to be taken into account that this system is really microscopic (comparing to a typical 2 way).
