Records to CD ripping need basic help


I just want to transfer LPs to CDR (stereo only). I purchased Audio Cleaning Lab/10 installed on my VAIO laptop and plugged in into my audio system. The resulting CDs even in the 24 bit mode are the most horrible thing I've ever heard. We are talking about quality. It "works" but the degradation from the original LP is incredible.

I'm thinking that audio quality should be the fault of the sound card A/D? Do I need to get a real sound card, one with RCA inputs? Could it possibly be software?

I had been using M-Audio's Audiophile USB very successfully but am now using an Apple G5. Big price difference and the G5 isn't much better. I don't even think I can get $150 for the Audiophile USB while the G5 was thousands.
