Good morning everyone,

I'm talking about testing two 3-way active speakers.

I have Umik-1 and REW. I've already done two REW measurements with the microphone in the middle of the room and the loudspeakers in front of it at a distance of 1m, with the microphone height aligned to the acoustic axis and the loudspeakers alternating exactly in the same reciprocal position in the room. The chain from the REW to the active XLR port of the loudspeakers are exactly the same in both measurements.

How can I check that the acoustic responses are correct? I'm particularly interested in the fast transient response, the phase and impulse response, whether the active crossover is correctly aligned, and especially if the two loudspeakers have responses well matched. Can I assume that the room has the same effect, as the speakers alternate in the same position?

Attached are the two .mdat measurements. Can anyone help me to verify this?

Thanks anticipated for your attention.
