I ran my Betas using the crossover function of the MEN220 with good results for a few months. But I have put my servo eq back in line mainly because I felt it could give me more control over a nasty low end room bump and it didn't feel right not using the servo.

It can be done with good results depending on whether you need that lowest octave.
