Definitely the normal (ie the original) spectrum from MILES for response correction. You want the original spectrum as it was measured, not what it would look like without interstellar exinction.  (When you see MILES referenced in literature it is usually the dereddened  spectra as it is normally used for modelling of stellar populations in galaxies but fortunately for us the raw uncorrected spectra were also made available)  

Cheers
