Just throwing it out there but;
Side by side is always tough. First there is volume variations that can make one speaker sound better or worse comparatively. Then a couple of times I have had an odd situation where the unused speaker took energy from the DUT. Once I figured out what was happening I inspected and found the cone on a free speaker was pulsing to the live speaker. Not sure why it did that but I just happen to have the test mic on and when I moved something there was a new anomaly in the reading. You have to either move the unused speaker away or short the posts. Better if you move the speaker away, more work but even if the drivers are not moving they are acting large reflectors in the room.
