At £772, this is a strong deal: it sits below the £806 25th-percentile comparable and well under the £960 median for recent used examples. Assuming it is the standard Micro 25 rather than a materially different variant, the price leaves useful room for sensible servicing or replacement valves.
The Micro 25 is a well-regarded British valve preamp for its engaging timing, rich but broadly balanced tone, and particularly capable MM phono stage. Its simple, hard-wired design and compact format appeal to listeners who value musical involvement over features. Check that the three ECC83/12AX7 valves are healthy, confirm the phono input suits your cartridge, and remember there is no remote; otherwise, at this price, it looks like a genuine buying opportunity.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Croft is a British hi-fi brand associated with Glenn Croft, whose roots go back to the late 1970s in Wolverhampton, England, when he was repairing and modifying valve audio equipment. By the early 1980s, the Croft name was established in specialist audio, and the company has been in business for decades rather than operating as a new boutique label.
The brand is best known for amplification, especially valve and hybrid amplifiers and preamplifiers; its phono stages and integrated amplifiers are particularly well regarded among vinyl-focused listeners. Croft is not known as a maker of speakers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, but rather as a focused electronics specialist built around simple, hand-crafted designs.
In the market, Croft sits in the niche audiophile and specialist British hi-fi segment: neither mass-market nor ultra-luxury, but respected for musical, tube-based sound and a loyal following among enthusiasts. Its appeal is strongest with buyers who value classic circuit design, understated engineering, and a distinctly old-school hi-fi character.
