Any louder and it's utter distortion. Even with a commercially released MP3 that's properly mastered and normalized will clip the virus outputs in the most annoying of ways.
Oddly, the bigger Polar does not do this, nor does any audio interface i've ever owned. Kind of a weird problem, I am also not sure if there is a solution or if other people are having this come up. Anyone?

i've checked a snow against a polar and they behave exactly the same. if you clip the buss in logic, you hear distortion. nothing special IMO. as for "nearing the 0dB mark" i cannot say that i had a problem with anything that doesn't clip the buss.
if you believe that there is a difference in between the polar and the snow, please show me how i can see this difference for myself.
