This will create a set of .wav files from your music CD. You can
then use K3B / "create audio CD project" to burn them to disk.

Or you can do it all from K3B: Copy CD.

Yeah, I think you would lose plenty of music fidelity to create a CD
via wav files!

Why? Sound in Windows' WAV files is encoded in the same way that a CD
is: 44.1 kHz, stereo PCM. There's nothing that would be called
compression. So unless you're among the oddball crowd who thinks they
can here 22 kHz sounds, this is about as good as audio encoding ever
needs to be.
