Doesn't really matter. Alpine employs decently smart people I'm sure......so those slopes should be what was required to optimize the performance of the comp set.

and i would like to know where i should set the filters ( high or low pass)

Highpass

and where should the cut-off be ( what HZ)?

That's setup dependent. Try anywhere between 70hz and 125hz. Just listen for the setting that sounds best to you.
