Denon AVR-3700h crossover setting for ES10s

Need to adjust the crossover freq on my AVR for my HT system.

System:
7.1.4 system
LCR = ES15
SL, SR, RSL, RSR, TFL, TFR, TRL, TRR = ES10
Klipsch SPL-120 (Only 1. I know this sub sucks but it was free (can't afford a different one at this time) and 2 subs are better than 1, but space availability and wife/babies won't allow another.)
Denon avr-3700h
Speakers are set to small
80Hz was the setting Audyssey assigned after calibration.

ES10 total freq is 75Hz-40kHz but there's no way they play anywhere near "good" that low or high.

Should keep the low pass at 80? Raise it to 90 or 100? I think 80 is way too close to the lower limits of the ES10s.

Can't find a -3db rating for the ES10 anywhere (text or chart). Polk CS said it's 75Hz but that can't be true.

Help appreciated!

    Run audyssey, it should be pretty accurate on that model. I would guess 100-120hz.
