The Warm Audio WA-84 Condenser Microphone is based on classic microphone circuitry. The WA-84 is a fully discrete Class A design that utilizes a CineMag USA transformer, polystyrene and Wima capacitors and a Fairchild FET. The WA-84 is designed for pro studio, home studio, live, and broadcast applications and sounds great on a variety of instruments and sources, such as; Acoustic/Electric Guitars, Acoustic/Electric Bass, Drums, Piano, Strings, Brass & Woodwind instruments, and an array of other sources.

The WA-84 has a very LARGE sound for its small size and uniquely uses a heavy Nickel CineMag transformer in its signal path to warm up and ENLARGE sound sources. Small diaphragm condenser microphones have widely moved to transformer-less technology in recent years for ease of design and a lower-cost manufacturing process. When designing the WA-84 Warm Audio chose to go the extra mile and tackle a more boutique design known for its crystal clear, yet smooth, LARGE sound.

The WA-84 brings something special to the market-place by using large core transformer technology (CineMag USA) in a small diaphragm condenser microphone package. The result is a circuit that sounds absolutely gorgeous and goes the extra mile in terms of signal integrity and smooth boutique tone.
