A typical high-end card is a lot better than that. Example: http://www.ixbt.com/proaudio/lynxstudio/lynxaurora8%28+4dbu%29-2444.shtml THD: 0.0005% IMD + Noise: 0.0007% The largest peak at the 1k THD graph is around -110 dB. That's far below the threshold of human hearing. 115 dB dynamic range would imply about 19 bits precision. Frequency response is total flat up to 20k (0.02 dB error). That would mean 0.22% amplitude error at 20 kHz.
