Phasing a biamp system


I currently am biamping my system. The speakers I’m using are not the issue. What would you recommend the best way to be sure the high end is in the same phase as the low end. Can’t really rely on cable polarity since we don’t know what’s going on between the input to the speaker and the speaker.
Two ideas come to mind:
1) use a dual trace oscope to compare the inputs to both the high and low speaker inputs and observe the waveforms of a suitable frequency.
2) use microphone input to the oscope to do the same.

any thoughts or suggestions are very welcome.
thank you

If you have speakers designed to be biamped, and you are not using a line level crossover simply assume the speaker's inputs are correct.

If you bypass all the crossover components then there's a lot more to do along with phasing... BTW in a loudspeaker you're interested in the phase at the crossover frequency, what happens either side of that is of less importance. If that is what you're doing then reverse engineering the crossover is a good start... not quite as difficult as it sounds if you know a bit of basic electronics.
You can use equipment to check phase, but you can actually do it with your EARS just as well. Put your head directly in front of your speaker drivers, turn on and play music or a low level signal near the low midrange or upper bass crossover frequency. Then reverse the speaker leads on the bass OR midrange, you should be able to tell which sound appears to be radiating from between both drivers. It really should be quite obvious. I use this same method for double checking the phase in a tri-amp system as well. Of course you should first set it up with a battery and verify the cone movement of the drivers, but after that it's just your ears that make the decision.
My thoughts are that you don't understand how to integrate speakers.

While you can test polarity using a 1.5 to 9V battery it may not yield the correct electro acoustic integration of the two sections.

If you have speakers designed to be biamped, and you are not using a line level crossover simply assume the speaker's inputs are correct.
I have several lab quality frequency generators and SPL meters. Could you explain the process that you are recommending?
Use a tone generator and sound pressure meter.  There are multiple tone generators you can download.
