 Here is what Michael Fremer said about Phoenix S in his Feb 20, 2014 review 

"If you're looking for a tonally honest, well balanced, high performing low output moving coil cartridge that will get out of the way and not assert a strong personality, the Transfiguration Phoenix would be a good choice.
If you haven't already done so, go back to the phono preamp story, download a few files and listen to how chameleon-like the Phoenix can be depending upon the choice of phono preamps. That's an indication of how good it is."

MC cartridge 0.4 mv output
and 2 Ohms internal resistance per channel. 

 Push pull damping

A special compound has newly been meticulously designed and
fabricated to provide total stylus/coil alignment and control. It's
non-sensitivity to temperature change keeps the damping coefficient stable and
improves tracing accuracy.



Twin
coils on the cantilever fulcrum

Minimizes dynamic mass and mechanical impedance, enabling
instant, accurate reaction to every groove detail, including the ability to
handle massive transients without overshoot or break-up.



Special
alloy core for coil assembly

This increases sensitivity by 25dB, improves signal to noise
ratio eliminating a usual source of distortion.



Neodynium magnet

Thanks to the much higher induced magnetism of the neodymium
magnet in the rear of the double ring magnets, the coil-turns of the generator
have been reduced. It is very helpful to reduce the internal impedance to 7
ohms, which contributes to the improvement in the solidarity with transparency.



Low
mass tip

Ogura PA (3 x 30um) tip shares many of the advantages of the
flagship MC cartridge "The Orpheus". Its function is to reproduce the
character of the original recorded sound - not add or subtract its own
deficiencies.



Anti-resonance
cartridge body

The solid cartridge body utilizes both shape and material to
create a totally inert environment for the electromagnetic elements. These
elements are more effectively insulated from arm, turntable and tracing noises,
further reducing any tonal coloration of the music and lessening the illusion
of distracting mechanical noises.
