how to get good sounding copies of CDs

I have just learnt how to copy CDs using itunes on my G4 Mac. But i am a bit disappointed with the sound of the copies.
I upload the original, using itunes AIFF lossless format, then burn to a (data) CD at slow speed(4X).The copies sound OK but lack space, air, dynamics amd sparkle compared to the original. They also sound a bit shelved down tonally.
Is there something I can do to make better copies or is this as good as it gets?
P.S.Playing on a rega apollo

Thanks to all for your responses.I feel like I should get an external CD burner(but which one?) and some better CD-Rs(again which ones: music.black,gold???)
Photon:My GE desktop mac has a CR-R/W DVD-ROM drive.BTW how do you burn your Cds on the Mac using WAV-I thought that was for windows?
