Does anyone have any experience with the Dayton Audio PT Mini 6? I'm building a set of desktop speakers and this is my nearfield frequency response upwards of about 4k (left and right channels). Is it worth EQing these to a flat line or no?
It's a matter of preference/taste. I like to keep things simple, so I would leave it alone, unless it sounds wrong. A perfectly flat frequency response doesn't happen much outside of heavily DSP'd designs. For a desk speaker, you're likely to have reflected sound off the desk mucking things up far worse than the minor deviations you're seeing in that plot.
If anything physically moved between the left and right measurements, that could also change the measured response slightly.
Also, comments above assume you're talking about the basic shape of the response below 12 kHz or so. Boosting above that frequency to flat would be more EQ than is typically suggested. If your measurement wasn't on-axis with the driver that could also account for the high frequency roll-off.
