Frank and others:
I haven't found the software that Duncan Monro used to do the testing of SB
cards yet (site: http://www.m0kgk.co.uk/sdr/soundcards.php), but here are a
few ideas.
The DL4 site has Spectrum Lab. It can use either a sound card or other
device. Obviously, using a sound card to test sound cards is questionable
at best. A dedicated A/D & D/A independent of any sound cards would be
best. http://people.freenet.de/dl4yhf/spectra1.html
Dazy Web site has some software-based test equipment:

Rightmark audio suite. Look at RightMark Audio Analyzer (RMAA):

True Audio TrueRTA, has a simple free version, then one that adds features
that cost $$: http://www.trueaudio.com/rta_abt1.htm
There are more tools out there, but these are ones I have bookmarked in the
past.
I just broke down and ordered a used Sound Blaster Extigy (USB) sound card
via ebay, and a new M-Audio Delta 44. Both should be available fot testing
at some point.
All for now.
