Audible Illusions M3A or AI L-1 and CJ EV-1


I just got a turntable and bought a used M3 to replace my L-1, but to my ears the L-1 sounds better. I called AI to make sure I wasn't having a case of audiophilia nervosa and they said that indeed the L-1 is better than the M3. But they also said that the M3A is better than the L-1. So now I want to upgrade, but I'm wondering if the L-1 with a CJ EV-1 would be better or the M3A. Does anyone have any experience with these setups? BTW, those two volume knobs on the M3 are driving me CRAZY!

Thanks,
Winston

Another Bruce Moore design is the MFA Magus. It is more musical than the AI design. It certainly sounds better than the CJ.
