...Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong ?.
yes, you are misunderstanding a fundamental point of 24-bit audio. your CDs are 16bit sources so at best when you put them into a 24 bit file you are filling up the bottom empty bits with zeros. More likely you are doing some sort of resampling of the data to create a 24 bit file that is inherently of less resolution than the 16-bit source.

Do yourself a favor and learn how to rip cds to FLAC using Exact Audio Copy (EAC) in 'secure' mode only. there are lots of tutorials online
