enough for this, but how do I do it and which SW?

There are two approaches:
1. Use pink noise and an equaliser to correct any errors in frequency
response.
2. Use impulse response measurements and convolution to correct both
frequency and 'time' response.
For both you need an omnidirectional measurement microphone.
The cheap Behringer or anything similar will do.
For the first solution, use JAPA to measure (using the 'proportional'
display setting), and some equaliser to do the correction. I would
*not* use a 1/3 octave setfor this but an EQ such as the one you've
been testing. The target is *not* a flat frequency response, but one
that doesn't try to make your speakers do what they can't do, and in
any case one that drops off gently above around 2 kHz to somehting
between -6 and -12 dB at 20 kHz. How much depends or your taste.
For the second approach DRC + jconvolver is the way to go. DRC has
excellent documentation, make sure to read all of it before you try
anything.

There are three of them, and Alleline.
