So, despite an "accurate" rip, are there other factors, namely in the source/reader hardware or others, that could audibly impact the quality of a rip?
Highly unlikely.
If you use AccurateRip, you can be confident it is the right rip.
It is very unlikely it are the bits.
If they are mangled somewhere it will be random errors and when higher order bits are flipping, you will run for your volume control as it is pop, crackle, etc.
If you have a rip of a CD and a download of the same CD: are they bit identical?
Are you sure they are from the same "master"?
