For music studio: should I EQ each monitor separately or not?

As for how I go about it:

Her is my latest quick and dirty sub integration and bass EQ with T5V's when I was testing them

Rest of the EQ I modeled with imported spinorama measurements in REW, using the same 60dB scale for reference

This will be closer to what we hear in room above 500Hz.

I double checked with vCAD, using a 40dB scale, so I can also see the predicted horizontal and vertical directivity.
Horizontal (hor) directivity is shown here.

No need to take things that far and there will still be unit to unit variance of course, but that is how I go about it :D
 
Hmm.

So I did a EQ based on the L+R (combined) MMM measurement, and it gave me this prediction:

So I uploaded the EQ text document into Equalizer APO, and this were the results afterwards:

Which almost look the same, if not worse than the before EQ curve here under:

I'd love to hear your thoughts, and whether or not I might be doing something wrong.

Thanks so much.
I would only correct up to 200Hz (lower peaks), maybe up to 400 Hz (if the dip is minimum phase). Don't do any any EQ above that.
Bass correction can be individual for each speaker. Higher frequency correction should be identical for L & R.
