Drawmer Three-Sum: http://www.drawmer.com/new/three_sum.pdf .

It's a new box explicitly for doing exactly that sort of split-out 
(well, it's stereo, but you could always use one side only).  I'd 
been looking lately at building a DIY multi-band mastering array, and 
obviously I'm not the only one.

Now I'm just trying to figure out why -- aside from overall build 
quality, higher end components, and the Drawmer name -- I should 
shell out a nice chunk of cash for one of these, rather than using a 
mainstream crossover such as a DBX 234...
