The Phonix Final Edition captures the spirit of the original while elevating it with a new visual and acoustic expression 13 Drivers, 5-Way System Four Newly Implemented Low-frequency Drivers Elegant Gun Metal Gray Faceplate Custom Premium 22AWG Cable Greater Depth, Precision, and Presence The PHöNIX Final Edition is built around a meticulously refined acoustic concept, combining 13 balanced armature drivers with a newly reworked 5-way crossover and an updated tuning philosophy. The final tuning introduces a more sculpted and spacious low-end foundation.The result is a presentation of remarkable balance and expression: Sub-bass reaches deeper, adding weight, extension and authority to the presentation, while the low mids and upper bass have been carefully rebalanced to create a more open, controlled and articulate overall image. Lows For the PHöNIX Final Edition, the low-frequency section has been refined with four newly implemented balanced armature drivers featuring an advanced diaphragm construction and a newly reworked tuning. Through a specialized manufacturing process, the diaphragm achieves increased structural rigidity and improved control over its movement behavior. As a result, the driver achieves a significantly improved low-frequency extension, maintaining a flatter and more linear response even below 30 Hz, a range where traditional balanced armature designs typically exhibit roll-off. Sub-bass reaches deeper, adding weight, extension, and authority to the presentation, while the low mids and upper bass have been carefully rebalanced. The result is a low-end response that feels more focused, more controlled, and more precise, powerful in foundation, yet clean in its contour. Mids The midrange of the PHöNIX Final Edition remains true to the unmistakable character of the original, preserving its vivid detail and remarkable naturalness. With the newly refined low-frequency foundation, the mids now unfold with greater openness and space, allowing voices and instruments to breathe more freely. The result is a presentation that feels more spacious, more detailed, and even more natural in its expression. Mid-Highs The mid-highs of the PHöNIX Final Edition are powered by four BA drivers, giving the upper range of the frequencies a lustrous and harmonic imaging. The richness of details is breathtakingly uncompromising. The highs are unfolding with a natural timbre, slightly sparkling and at all time not exaggerating. Highs The highs of the PHöNIX Final Edition shine with a silky brilliance, combining openness with an especially smooth and refined character. They bring air and light to the presentation with effortless grace, revealing the finest details while remaining natural, elegant, and controlled.
