Warm Audio WA-87 R2 Fet Condenser Mic - Nickel

In 2016, Warm Audio introduced one of the most talked-about 87-style FET condenser microphones in the industry with the release of the WA-87, and it made the looks and authentic vintage sonics of this style of mic affordable to customers for the very first time. Simply put, the release of the WA-87 changed the industry’s perception of what could be achieved at an affordable price. Based on classic 60s circuitry, the WA-87’s rich sound became a favorite of countless producers, engineers, and home recordists everywhere. It was Warm Audio's first microphone and a verifiable hit, and in recent years. Warm Audio followed it with many other successful and ground-breaking designs. Since the release of the WA-87 in 2016 Warm Audio learned a bunch more about microphone manufacturing, and proven that they can shatter the industry’s quality expectations at affordable prices. That experience drove them to see if they could improve the WA-87 in tangible ways without having to raise the price, and the result is the new WA-87 R2 (Revision 2). Warm Audio used everything they've learned about recreating vintage microphones in the last five years to bring it even closer to the sound, vibe and performance of the original 60s classic we all know and love. Warm Audio is ecstatic to bring you the result – in short, the new WA-87 R2 is bigger, bolder and just plain better!
