Default Insertion Loss with CR1?

I recently recalibrated/re-tuned my system and discovered about 4dB of insertion loss between my C52 preamp, CR1 X-over and my MC452 power amp. I'd been vaguely aware of it from the last tuning I did, but in retuning my rig I decided to try and set up the whole system to achieve unity gain. To do that, I used the main/sub balance controls as I couldn't think of another way to make up the gain from the CR1's output.

BTW, I am connected using balanced cables between all the components. Anybody else find this to be the case....that is that they had to do some make up in the crossover to obtain unity gain through their system?
