Channel 1 with XLR input and 1/4" output.

I lowered the input level on the soundcard calibration screen (in REW) which also lowers the output (they seem to be linked) and still got the distortion.

What I am curious about is about it really mattering as the actual plots relative to the 802 are similar enough. Is the software correcting for the distortion?
I used mini stereo to 1/4 input and 1/4 to mini stereo output to and from the sound card. My M-Audio Revolution 7.1 sound card shows <0.001% second and third. The Audio Buddy and Revolution show 0.005% and <0.001% distortion numbers combined. Furthermore the Hz is .2db to .1db from 20Hz to 20KHZ with both units in the chain!
I think you're splitting hairs here.
