If you don't have an audio signal generator or spectrum analyser, try using a Bluetooth adapter to feed the output of a free signal generator app (I use Keulsoft function generator for an Android phone) and run the analyser on another phone (I use Spectroid, also free) which "listens" to the sound.
Between my wife and me, there are a few retired phones lying around! You won't get lab quality measurements, but it's great for before/after testing if you are making audio circuit or speaker changes. Of course, the Bluetooth connection and the phone's mic add their own curves, but it is still useful as a zero budget test setup! Good idea to use the newest Bluetooth versions that you have, though.
I have used this approach to generate some low frequency tones while testing changes to coupling caps and also to tweak a speaker enclosure.
It's interesting to see how much room acoustics mangle the frequency response of your console! This is a sweep from 20 to 20,000 hz of my SK111 in our living room. 'Course, I can't hear anything above about 9khz! The red trace is the max sound level after sweeping through the frequencies, yellow is background noise in the room.
