I see, or at least I think I do. You're saying you want to double-check your wiring, right? If so, I'm not sure I can recommend a short-cut. You can measure total impedance for a "sanity check" - If it's way off then you'll know something is wrong. For example, one would expect a series/parallel network of four 8Ω drivers to measure 8Ω total, so if it didn't you would know something is amiss. But there is no substitution for checking point-to-point connections. Even if you measure impedance and find it's right, you won't know that polarity is right for each driver without a response chart. Best to check your wiring, point-to-point.
