Ripping to a Mac, any software?

After importing several songs to my iMac via iTunes, I found the results disappointing. I used Apple Lossless and had the error correction in Preferences checked. Any tips for the mac for better sound quality? Any decent ripping software for the Mac? How about using a better cd spinner, such as an external Plextor drive? Thanks!

Hi,
I use a Plextor and Toast. Also, I copy at max 4/1. E-mail me if you want specifics.
cheers,
Sam

I have been ripping CDs with iTunes on iMac for over a year now and it works really well. What kind of disappointing result did you get? Can you explain a bit more?

What exactly is disappointing? I import into Itunes (with error correction) using WAV files and burn at no faster than 4X with quality media and the results sound no different from files ripped/burned from Toast and using an external LaCie Porsche design burner. Which is to say, they sound excellent. Have you tried using something other than Apple Lossless?
