If you are comparing PC souncard to SB3 with MP3 files, you are doing
yourself a disservice (I am not sure what you are comparing here).

Use FLAC format files, clean all contacts and make sure you have
sensible cables. Then compare the SB3 and the PC.

I don't think DRC will help you much, as there are many things you can
try beforehand.
