Hello
I have a suggestion on your crossover points. I would adjust them to be similar to what JBL would use for that driver set. You don't mention box sizes and enclosure types for the drivers.
I will assume you have the 2245 in about 8 cubit ft or so in a reflex tuned box say 30Hz or lower. The 2123 would be in a .5 cubic ft sealed sub-enclosure medium fill.
That said crossover set to the 2123 approximately 300 Hz to about 1.5k and then crossover at about 10K
The 2123 can do lower in a separate reflex box but the 10" drivers in the large format monitors were always in sealed sub-enclosures crossed around upper 200-s to lower 300's
You can try the slopes and crossover frequencies referenced in the attached speaker spec sheets as a starting point when you set up your DSP.
The 2123 can have a rising frequency response so you may have adjust with a low Q notch PEQ in the upper range of the driver. I use 2123's from 300 to 1.5K no notch so see what works for you.

Here is the 4355 as an additional reference

A JBL 4345 tip from Ian Mackenzie 4343 4344 4345
Set up your 4345 active bi amp crossovers as follows:
Woofer to midrange Linkwitz 2nd order low and high pass @300 hertz with reverse electrical phase on the 2123H
This will sum the acoustic response flat. The crossover point of each driver is -6 db with perfect transient response due to the low Q of the filter. The subjectivity of the translation is perfect.
