However, I need a means to send only the bass to the amp that powers the
Subwoofer. Is there any sort of crossover made that goes in the input of
the power amps, after the preamp?
Commonly done, even in my son's old Altec computer speakers.

Funny you mentioned the Altec name. My 600W power amp and the preamp are
Altec Lansing brand. The speakers are Yamaha.

Haha - I have the opposite, a Yamaha A-520 amp and a pair of
Altec Lansing "Eights", upgraded with new kevlar dome tweeters
instead of the awful piezos, and fantastic new mids. The Eights
were their first entry into the audiophile market, I believe.

Are you familiar with the Grateful Dead's "wall of sound". That was
considered the biggest sound system ever made at that time (early 70s).

Yes, I recall watching a doco on Youtube about it.
