The Phoenix have risen from the ashes of what was unquestionably Krix's most awarded and respected loudspeaker, the Lyrix / Lyrix Gold. Tonal depth, imaging and balanced musicality are highlights in this slim floorstanding design. Involve yourself in the experience of sound with the Phoenix.
“Commencing then with Pavarotti in the role of Lieutenant B. F Pinkerton in Decca’s 1974 recording of Madama Butterfly, the Phoenix gave tremendous body and depth to the tenor’s voice. In the upper register, the ‘King of the High C’ himself sounded assured and grain free through the Krix tweeters. The overall sound was full and satisfying with lovely amounts of tight bass. With the Miles Davis recording ‘Round About Midnight’, the Krix were open and transparent when playing Miles’ solos, yet bopped along with the rest of the band when the tempo picked up. The transparency could be put down to a couple of things, but I think it is the crossover which must take most of the credit here. I’m sure it was a process of careful listening and adjustment during the development phase.”
