Default Building Passive Crossovers

OK, so I bought this pair of CDT HD-2BL Hybrid Mid-tweeters. Their frequency response is rated from 250Hz - 20kHz. I contacted CDT about the proper high pass frequency and they recommend 1500Hz at 24dB/Oct.

Now, building a 4th order passive crossover is easy enough, but my question for the audio gurus here is which style?
  • Bessel
  • Butterworth
  • Gaussian
  • Legendre
  • Linkwitz-Riley
  • Linear Phase

I never really knew the differences between these and I'm hoping someone here does.
