IMHO, #2 is ever so slightly better sounding to my ear than #3, though by a tiny margin. IMHO, #1 sounds noticeably worse, which may be because it is slightly oversaturating the interface.
I'm hearing a touch of gravelly distortion on some of the bass drum hits with that one that I don't hear in the others. Saturation in a simple feedback loop test usually screams "driver bug" to me.... Is #1 a SoundBlaster, by any chance?
I think maybe #3 is something by M-Audio. I'm hearing a very familiar sort of transient smear that reminds me of my old Delta 1010LT. I could be imagining things, or this could be an MP3 artifact.
OTOH, I'm hearing more HF phasing on #2 and #3 than I do on #1. This probably means that #1 has a cheap filter bank that results in HF roll-off. With less extremely high frequency signal to push the MP3 encoder, the slightly less extreme HF ends up sounding slightly better on that test, but I think this aspect of #1 sounding better is actually caused by it sounding worse, coupled with MP3 being a terrible medium for comparison.
I think #2 is the high end unit, but it is very close to #3. Note, however, that I'm comparing these on a cheap pair of Sony earbuds, so I may totally change my mind about 2 vs. 3 if I listen on actual monitors....
So there's my guess. From worst to best: 1, 3, 2.
