Digital: RMS: -96.0, Peak: -68.0
Analoge: RMS: -96, Peak: -70.3 Hmmm, I would expect the digital peak to be lower than the analogue.
I did a test on pure silence and it came out at -96.0dB RMS, -96.0dB peak.
I don't really know much about this, I think I need to do some reading up at the hydrogenaudio.org forums.

What you wanna do is get your headphones on and really crank it up, have the analogue and the digital samples side by side and listen to them both.
But make sure you don't play any real signal, or you'll kill your ears! I tested a piece of silence between the fox logo and the crawl.

When I play the files (between the logo and crawl) and I can clearly see that the -db value is higher for the analoge capture, so it's more silent right?
No, a higher value means more noise. A lower value (by lower, I mean of course "more negative") indicates less noise. When I play the files (between the logo and crawl) and I can clearly see that the -db value is higher for the analoge capture, so it's more silent right?
