Wanted : Conrad Johnson PV12 - Croft 25R - or similar

I just don't get you Mike, or rather what type of sound you are after.
When you had the Pass DCB1 did you have that wired in after your Promitheus TVC? I would have thought that would sound very good.

Do you still have the DCB1? I can suggest a remote control passive that sounds excellent, indeed stellar when rewired with OCC wire. This followed by the DCB1 or similar is the business.

I may try one of these remote control passives in place of my Tisbury.
Which OCC wire do you suggest for the rewire.
Also thought I might remove the transformer and mains from the case and feed DC in.

The Dc is totally unconnected with the audio path, so IMO is not worth removing the tx and mains.

Didn't you like the AD Satchmo, Mikey? I had the same unit on demo recently and thought it was very impressive. in fact hard to imagine a better active pre, if that's what you're looking for. Bit pricey tho', considering your stated budget.

Get rid of the Alps blue and it might have half a chance of making you happy!!
