A Simple High Pass filter?

I will be passively biamping my system with the built in crossover on the speaker with a tube amp for the high end and SS on the bottom. Striking a balance between the two is not an issue. However, since tube amps prefer to see a full load on their output assuming they recieve a full (20 - 20K) signlal at their input, I would like to construct a simple plug in passive high pass filter for the inputs (two mono amps)so those amps will only see above 100-120Hz or so at their input.
Instead of modifying the amp directly, I would prefer to have a plug-in that can be easily removed and used elsewhere if needed.
I am unsure of the cap and resistor value to be used, and of the actual simple schemaic of such. I have a good idea, but since I do not do this a lot, I want to ask to be certain.
Also, if someone could recommend a high quality brand for this application and for each component I would greately appreciate it. Thank you.
