Croft, NFD or Lavardin for Harbeth M40.1


Hi Looking for any input on these 3 brand of gear. ( will power the M40.1 )

1. Croft Micro 25RS + 7R monoblocks

2. NFD ( Should I go with separates or Just NCSE MKII or I ) ?

3. Lavardin IT - I have a chance to buy demo

I never heard of these gear in my home and unfortunately these dealers not around my area.

Any input would be greatly appreciate it.

My room is about 15 ft x 24ft and I usually use the tube amp however my pre amplifier were sold and I was use the NAD 320 bee Int amp as temporaly solution but I found they sounds superior compare to my megabucks tube amp . ( Shocked )

Zd542, because that is what the OP asked and it is something I have experience with. Croft works nicely with Harbeths. I am uncertain what your angle is given we have no idea what ancillary equipment is being used. I can assure you that the Croft kit will have a fine soundstage as recommended.
I have used Croft kit for years. I would get the 25R and save the money over the RS for a set of NOS Telefunkens which wikl beat a stock RS. The Croft has a great phono stage. I have not heard the 7 mono blocks but they have received rave reviews.
