Hi meteo,
What is the purpose of your test? Unless you are in an anechoic chamber, you aren't really testing your speakers; rather, you are testing how your speakers interact with the room they are in. Put another way, room acoustics will have a HUGE HUGE HUGE effect on the transfer function you hear in the room, and this response will vary hugely as you move about the room.
So depending on what you are testing for, I would probably put the mic as close to the listening position as possible. Perhaps make an equilateral triangle made up by the 2 speakers and the listening position....
