Here's how I used to do things back when I had a micro rig. I used a 2/3/4 way crossover to split LF and HF to two channels of one power amp. Then, I wired up my 2 subs to one side, and 2 tops to the other, running both channels at 4 ohms.
Nowadays, I run my DJs/Live talent thru a little bit of processing. A Behringer Autocom MDX1400, and a Behringer CMX3400 crossover, output to two bridged Peavey CS800s for subwoofer duty, and a Behringer powered mixer for my tops, until I can get my mitts on another 150-watt power amp for the tops. Another upgrade path could be a DBX Driverack-PX, or Driverack-PA, since they have compression, eq, limiter, crossover built in.
To close this out, get ahold of a decent quality power amp for your tops, and a active crossover to split sub and mains before the amplification. I'd have no beef with throwing the 2 tops on a QSC GX3 power amplifier and calling it done. A QSC GX3 can be had for ~300 and a used crossover for under a hundo.
