I guess my bass horns are also seriously down at 60Hz, compared to 100Hz,
but still, I chose 60Hz 24dB to cross with my two subs. I tried 80Hz which seemed more logical ON PAPER but the sound was a bit slow and ponderous. It's like, the higher you go, the harder it is to match a direct radiator driver with a "heavy" cone, to a horn loaded mid bass. If you use (tapped)horn subs, it might be different.
I'm sure in my system there's a gap between 60 and 80Hz, or at least a serious down, but still, it sounds much better this way. Only on a fcouple of recordings does it sound slightly "weird" down low, but not to a point that it would compromise the enjoyment.
Of course, different system, different room, your mileage may vary, but my gut feeling is tat the room has more impact on the result that a seamless crossover, down low.
