Don, if you are talking about a Turtle Beach Sound Card with analog outputs, the
chain is so weak at that point, there A/B testing is worth very little. The
original Turtle Beach sound card was fine 10 years ago.
But they no longer make a card that can be considered HI Fi by today's
standards. They have made some real crap since then.
You need to copy the MP3 files onto a CDR and then play them through a CD player
that can play both MP3 and standard CDs. That would be the only valid way to
A/B test (plus you would have to adjust the sound levels for each CD so that
they would be equal.
