Need help with amp and speaker combo for diy sub

I'm pretty new to the world passive audio and just want to make sure I won't blow my sub.

I've got a Crown CTs1200, bridged, running at 1200 Watt at 8 Ohms.

My woofer is a CGN Audio Labs CGN1808, 18 inch, 800 Watt AES, 3200 Watt Peak, 8 Ohm driver.

I use an A&H iLive to do all my DSP and I was thinking of using a 35Hz high pass and 80Hz low pass filter for my crossover.

The iLive does have a limiter that can be inserted on its matrix outs, but it's basically just threshold, and that's it. I'm not sure if I should use it, and if so, where I should set it.
