The AI might be difficult to use with the McCormack. The AI has very high output, and the McCormack is very sensitive and easy to drive. The McCormack is designed to be used with passive preamps, and acheives full output with 1 volt of input, which is half the more standard 2 volt input.
I doubt that you would have very much useable range in the volume control with the Audible Illusions.
I own an AI Mod 3a and enjoy it. I'm not bashing either, but questioning the combination. Don't know anything about the Wright. You might be able to get a seperate phono pre amp and use a passive with the McCormack, bet it would sound very good.
