I was under the impression that applying a boost was a bad idea because it amplifies noise in the system... although (a) at 20Hz, maybe that's not something I'm going to hear, and (b) maybe that's just what my active crossover is doing anyway. This is why I was going down the path of trying to attenuate the large rise between ~40-100Hz.

Low frequency noise is limited to 60-cycle hum and related artifacts. Typically not a problem with well-designed components.
