It also provides a great deal more "oomph" for the lowest frequencies with higher power solid state plate amps on the subs.

Do I misunderstand your question? I think you know all this and use Harrison FMODs to accomplish this, no?
Yes I do. My argument is, even with less low frequency demands, a flea-powered amp can only do so much. I'm sure the boosted lower frequencies will help, but only on the 180-200 Hz realm. I'm afraid there may be an imbalance biased toward the 180-200 Hz when facing passages with high demand peaks across a wide frequency range distribution.

I may be wrong, since I have yet to try this approach, which otherwise sounds promising.
