I've never heard Audible Illusions, but someone in the audio industry whom I trust spent a weekend comparing the Modulus 3 with the Anthem Pre-1, and thought the Pre-1 was best in every respect. His opinion, not mine, but since Anthem Pre-1's (either the original, with phono, or Pre-1L) go for less than the Modulus 3, I thought I'd mention it.
