How high can you sanely crossover an SS 23W/4557T ?

Looking at options for bass drivers to go with audiotechnology 15H midranges in a three way system. Two SS 23W/4557T 's per channel (entirely sealed) is my favoured choice at the moment.

For those that have used or heard them, how high do you think you can sanely cross one over using LR4 slopes (electronical)? would say 200Hz or 220hz be pushing it sound quality wise?

Does anyone have a recommended crossover point for the 4557T?

I'm still deciding on, and will be experimenting with multiple setups of the above drivers, such as sealed and ported for the midrange, but if it is sealed Im afraid the 15H just wont go low enough or have the mid-bass slam to cross over any lower than 200Hz - and a 4 way is out of the question for now. Thoughts? Opinions?

Cheers!
