I've been buying iTunes music for years and recently made the move to importing CDs via Apple Lossless encoding in iTunes. I definitely notice an improvement in instrument separation and overall clarity over 256 kbps iTunes Plus music, but most of the lossless tracks from CD sound boring and flat. I don't know if it's my ears being ruined by years of iTunes compressed music, poor recording/mastering of my CDs, or iTunes encoding messing with the tracks. If it is just the CDs, I'd like to know where you guys get your FLAC/uncompressed tracks for computer/portable listening. I want to get source material to match the quality of my DT 880
