Once the board layout is good (nice separation between ana and dig, plenty of bypassing, fat short traces where needed, etc per datasheets), using the sound recorded with no mic is a good basis for comparison. Then for a second comparison make one no-mic recording with a battery and the other with a line supply. Changing AGC and playing with other values can also be instructive. But if you mean below the noise threshold of the system's design...?
