Don't obsess over silly things that might not be important or even a real issue at all.
Unless you place the mics exactly the same way into perfectly symmetrical ears(we don't have that), you won't and really shouldn't get identical measurements.
Then there is the headphone and speakers to consider. It's very common to have a few dB here and there on a headphone, as for speakers, the room and placement can have so much impact(and of course the speakers won't have perfectly identical response either).
What you can look for is if you have global imbalance, because it's very unlikely that your own head or mic insertion would cause something with an even impact at all frequencies. So you should probably compensate for that. But even then, maybe your recording setup has one volume level per channel and they're not well matched? Or maybe your amp has some imbalance caused by the volume pot. So it's still relevant to listen and check if the center image(any mono stuff) is well centered for you subjectively. If it is, that's a really good sign that some things are done well.
On that small sample of a capture without scale it's hard to make a guess, but It looks very clean and stable so it's possibly the 50Hz from your house outlet bleeding into the ADC somehow. Doesn't look like noise picked up by the mic(too clean).
Thanks for the answer! This kind of stuff was making me crazy!
I noticed that one of the two mics is less sensitive (the one i plug on the right ear) so i raised the volume gain dx in behringer a little bit, am i doing right? i focus to adjust the red lines on the left to be more or less equal to both mics, is the right thing to do?
This is my last measurement

@lowdown
This is my first time doing the room measurement, i did only one single room measurement (center of the head), just to try the stuff...

but i need to boost the gain to +23db in the windows options to get the 6db headroom, this means that i get a lot of background noise due to the bad amplification the motherboard have, you can hear the noise here
@Xam198 i do the standard general plot with only the headphone files inside the myhrir folder
Code:
python impulcifer.py --test_signal="data/sweep-6.15s-48000Hz-32bit-2.93Hz-24000Hz.pkl" --dir_path="data/my_hrir" --plot
