The idea is to cleanly separate the frequencies (I am just going by
the textbook!), and to avoid sending to the main speakers the low
frequencies which may drive them into distortion. (Bach's organ music
is played on the system.)

You shouldn't have to worry about distortion in a subwoofer, but I admire
your fortitude. Yes, you are doing it the 'right' way, but certainly you
are doing it the 'hard' way. I'd try NSM's solution first, then if you have
objectionable distortion....

The low-out will go to a powered subwoofer.

I use an unpowered subwoofer. For your case, I would tap the low off
from the speaker outputs, combine them and feed that to the powered
subwoofer. That way the remote vol control will still work as
expected. I'd use two 100 ohm resistors feeding a 10 ohm resistor
and connect the powered subwoofer input to the connection point.
