"You have given us so much – this year our musical program before Christmas midnight Mass has been expanded from 30 minutes to an hour for the first time, and all because of the lovely Phoenix organ. besides carols with the choir, and Dandrieu etc., we have duets planned for harp and organ, and the chimes will strike the hour of midnight… it’s going to be great..."                      -- M. Pendergraft, St. Michael's Catholic Church “After a couple days playing it [the Phoenix Organ], he remarked that he believes this organ will actually sound better than the Casavant tracker he plays at his church.  He was also surprised that the touch of the keyboards "feel" so much like - and respond so much like - the keyboards on the tracker.  That's high praise from a organist with a PhD in organ that won't even take a church job unless they have a tracker action pipe organ! "Bottom line for us was the Phoenix represented great value, great musical quality, a true organist's console, and a company with a solid reputation." "In my opinion the Phoenix system is excellent.  We have been looking at extending the pipe organ at our church with some additional digital stops, and selected the Phoenix system for this purpose.  I went to hear an installation of such a hybrid... It was truly stunning, and it was pretty much impossible to tell which were genuine pipes versus the the digital stops." "Listen and Believe! I have never, ever heard an electronic organ reproduce pipe organ pedals with the heft and weight that a Phoenix Organ does, not to mention the ensemble." "First of all, let me say just how very pleased I am with the outcome of the organ. It is excellent and has transformed the Church. There were so many positive comments and I for one felt that I was back in England playing in an English Cathedral. .... I will be recommending it to any and all that need a new organ."                       -- J. Patrick Hough, S.J. ”We chose Phoenix for our builder for several reasons. First of all, it will be a completely custom built console, for about the same price as "off-the-shelf" organs from the "major" players. …The sales rep, D.L. Simmons & Company, was very responsive to my request for information (unlike every other brand I contacted). The more we looked at and listened to Phoenix, the more we liked it.”                                      -- Paul Culp, Organist  - St. Mark's Episcopal "This organ produces sumptuous sound. I am extremely pleased...  I also enjoyed very much meeting you ... we are enjoying the organ tremendously. Thanks for alerting me to a great deal on a wonderful organ." “I have heard and played a Phoenix and it was quite breathtaking. …… I've found Phoenix will build a custom instrument for about what other organ builders will give you a stock model for ...according to quotes I've received, they will actually build one for less. The Phoenix consoles for me anyways, leave absolutely nothing to be desired, ... not to mention that the Phoenix console was much more comfortable in general, and just looked so insanely massive.”  "I didn't realize it was not a pipe organ...", Streetsville Phoenix Organ. - [click for more info].
