Yes Indeed CD Copies Can produce playback improvements

24.4.252.10

It should stand to reason that the data being copied from disk to
disk is identical since the information is digital. The only
rationale which would make the sound sweeter would be the way
a CD optical lens picks-up the data off the disk through the
reflective surfaces. There are companies that boast that tweaks canbe acheived by handwiping an illuminator onto the disk surface
and using markers on around the edges of the disks. Many reliable
audio sources industry wide do not deny that this improves playback.
The quality of the mass produced discs is really what is in question.
Perhaps by moving the digital information onto a better reflective
surface, improvements do occur. It is also possible that there are
distortions on the cheap disks that the record companies use which
create additional problems for the reading device.
Optical Lenses can react negatively to these variations.

Just Food for Thought.
