Building second system around Harbeth P3 esr


I bought the P3's a couple of months ago. I should have some cash soon to go forward with this system. My thoughts are the Croft Phono Integrated. Please share your thoughts on not only the amp choice, but what this systems strengths might be. I just want to listen at low to moderate levels, and be engaged. I wish they were more efficient, which is why I'm thinking Croft, which has a tubed stage, and SS amp.

That should sound great. 50 watts is plenty to drive the P3’s.  BTW, I own the P3's and they are a great speaker !
fjn04, Give Gene Rubin a call. I purchased Harbeth and Spendors from him. He sells Croft so that would be the guy to ask. Check out his site!
Here is another Croft dealer.  http://store.acousticsounds.com/index.cfm?get=results&searchtext=croft+acoustics

Any cartridge with an output of 1.5 mv or more will have enough gain for the Croft. A high output mc is made to use with a mm input on any phono section.
" I loves tube amps also, P 3s nice little speakers but you will find tube amps not at their best with them." Thats’s pure Hogwash !
