Okay here is MPC-HC without using exclusive mode, playing a 76543Hz sweep file at 16 and 24-bit, recorded at 24-bit 48kHz using digital loopback. Left hand side is 100% volume and right hand side is 95% volume.
In terms of frequency...

and amplitude.

As you can see the test file's right channel is at 50% volume (-6dB) but it still distorts when using 100% playback volume. Just slightly reduce the built-in volume control in MPC-HC eliminates these artifacts and you can see how clean the Windows SRC is. When playing the 16-bit test file the noise floor is waaaaay higher than everything else. That means if Windows SRC is really that bad then everyone should delete all of their 16-bit files and sell all of their CDs.
