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 \u0026amp; woodwind instruments, and an array of other sources.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe 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 we chose to go the extra mile and tackle a more boutique design known for its crystal clear, yet smooth, LARGE sound.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe are proud to offer 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 we feel sounds absolutely gorgeous and goes the extra mile in terms of signal integrity and smooth boutique tone.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe WA-84 utilizes a custom vintage-style capsule designed to emulate classic componentry and design techniques. The WA-84’s capsule is carefully manufactured by an Australian capsule supplier and is precisely reproduced to vintage specs. We are pleased to offer such a high quality capsule in this microphone which allows us to nail the sonics of the most important component of any microphone.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe WA-84 utilizes an American made CineMag USA transformer that contributes to the legendary creamy smooth top-end and the BEEFY mid to bottom-end one would hope to get from an 84-style small diaphragm condenser microphone.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe WA-84 is a fully discrete Class A design that utilises a CineMag USA transformer, polystyrene and Wima capacitors and a Fairchild FET. It also proudly utilises Wima, polystyrene and tantalum through-hole capacitors throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eUtilises a CineMag USA transformer\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDirectional pattern: cardioid\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFully discrete vintage-style signal path\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eVintage capsule reproduction\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePackage includes: microphone, cardioid capsule, shock-mount, mic clip, windscreen and carrying case\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e48v phantom powered\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrequency range: 20Hz - 20kHz\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSensitivity: -39dB or 11mV\/pa @ 1kHz\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOutput impedance: 200ω\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRated load impedance: ≥1kω\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePad: 0db or -10dB\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 123\/133dB @ 1kHz, 0.5% THD, 0\/-10dB\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eS\/n ratio: 78dBa (IEC651)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEquivalent noise: 16dBa (IEC651)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 107dBa (IEC651)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConnector: 3-pin gold-plated XLR\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWeight: 122g each\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFinish: black \u0026amp; nickel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"manufacturer-site\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"container\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor more information, please visit the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/warmaudio.com\/wa-84\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003emanufacturer's website\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Warm Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41441213808698,"sku":"WAR-WA84 NICKEL PAIR","price":1179.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1764\/4443\/files\/warm-audio-wa84-small-diaphragm-condenser-mics-nickel-stereo-pair-war-wa84npair-gsus4-4225335.jpg?v=1780491853","url":"https:\/\/gsus4.com.au\/products\/warm-audio-wa84-small-diaphragm-condenser-mics-nickel-stereo-pair","provider":"Gsus4","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
