Measured FR in my listening room (1W 1m)
There is a phase shift at 100 Hz but I'm pretty happy with the results

Your room and speakers are gorgeous. The dip at 100Hz is likely a room mode. I would attenauate a bit the treble over 3k Hz, but that's my taste.
Nice job. Complimenti!!

Kudos for the finishing, they really look well and blend in nicely. I was kind of surprised by the high output from 20Hz to 30Hz followed by the moderate dip at 36-37Hz. I'm used to see more pronounced dips with ported enclosures and I never get such output that low from a 7" woofer.
You did a nice job! Congratulations!
I would like to see an impedance plot, too. It should show how successful your inner bracing was.
I think they should sound very well.
I look at your measurements and are in a position to predict the taste of a meal from the recipe and a picture of the dish, so take the following with a grain of salt (or garlic).
If you start comparing, have this in your mind:
Your room seems to act very polite. You can not predict this. Seems to be a solid build north Italian house, so not much wall/ floor resonance. Nice!
If you would place some other speaker in you room for comparison, yours might sound a little less powerfull /bright, as they rise a bit to the high side. The usual commercial response is more like rising on the low end and /or a little dip in the middle. Your's are on the "analytic side" to tell so far. In your room.
So if for some reason, after some intense listening you get tired, try making them even more linear, or even tilts a bit to the right, maybe 2-3dB lower at 10k.
The more and longer you listen, the more your ear adapts to "your" curve.
On the other hand, you may notice very small passages where you think you heard something "wrong". The longer you listen, the better you can narrow in these events. may be a process of a few month. So concider small changes over time, to "round off" your speaker even more.
Be sure you have listening material of CD quality. Streaming has made quality somehow a bit of a gamble. You may not always get the data rate you see, up and down sampling, restoring, converting and all these different formats can really fool you. Make final adjustments based on "real, known" CD quality or better (which I see no real need in, just personal oppinion).
If possiple, reset your ears from time to time, at live events. Small open air stuff is nice for it, the smaller, nearer and less amplifided the better.
