I rip with iTunes and uses a Lacie DVD drive connected to my iMac through Firewire. Format: Apple Lossless. And btw: I've re-burned some of my music from the ripped files, just for fun.

Same thing happens: The burnt CD sounds the same as the original, even if it has passed through iTunes and been compressed (but not reduced) first.

Curiously enough CD burnt from MP3s also sound far better than playback through Sonos if burnt as standard red book CD and played with G91.
