Well, I know you are going to disagree, but here is a TEST anyway: Source: 30-second WAV clip of Limehouse Blues from Jazz at the Pawnshop Replayed via SBS and via TinySC (using a self powered USB drive), analogue (RCA) out captured into M-Audio 24/96 @24/44.1
ADM comparison (at highest possible quality settings - takes a long time to run) of the two recordings shows that the difference is white noise @ < -86dB which I would put down to self-noise in the input stage of the M-Audio ADC and mostly the analogue output stage of the Touch. So with a self-powered USB drive there is NO difference on the analogue outs between TinySC and SBS. Not an opinion... a fully repeatable test.
