"My CD rips are perfect (!)..."
The vast majority of CD rips are perfect, in regard to the numeric data represented (as long as "normalization" isn't utilized).... But rips by different programs sound different because of how the data is written to disk.... The differences occur during playback, where one rip induces a different jitter response to another.... And would differ yet again with different playback software, or even after an update to the operating system.
And the jitter responses would change yet again if the hard drive were to be "defragged", or recovered from backup data in the event of a drive crash.
Too many variables, and too little control over them.
