Firstly, the sub has no crossover setting on the AV receiver so I assume that you mean the LPF of LFE filter? This should always be left set to 120Hz given that this is the ceiling for Dolby's LFE channel. There's nothing to be gained by setting it any higher and you'd risk losing aspects of the LFE channel if you set it below 120Hz.
Set all your speakers as being SMALL and then designate each of the floor layer speakers with a crossover no lower than 80Hz. I'd personally suggest setting the Atmos speakers no lower than 150Hz, mainly because lower frequencies tend not to be reflected so are better off being sent to the sub as opposed to being sent to your ceiling.
