I have had both in my system over the years (with the Harbeth C7es3, and I think that the LFD was better. However, they were both phenomenal. I think the convenience of the LFD without any tubes to worry about is another point in its favor. LFD is the only SS amplification that I've ever heard that has the beauty of tubes.
To be fair, I didn't do much tube rolling with the Croft when I had it. With some NOS tubes, it might pull ahead of the LFD.
This is really a win-win debate. You can't go wrong!
