Warm Audio WA-8000 Large-Diaphragm Tube Condenser Microphone

The WA-8000 large-diaphragm tube condenser microphone delivers the open high end, transparent midrange and uncanny detail that defined an era. Meticulously engineered to meet exacting specifications, the WA-8000 boasts premium components for a sound as timeless as the hits it has captured. Musicians and engineers will appreciate its ability to render the subtlest details of any performance.

Custom-Designed Capsule Captures Every Nuance

At the heart of the WA-8000's stunning resolution is a bespoke K67-style capsule crafted from solid brass. Reverse-engineered to match the frequency response of its legendary inspiration, the capsule is highly sensitive to capture the full depth and dimension of any source. Vocals come through with a polished, radio-ready sheen while acoustic instruments are reproduced with visceral realism.

Precision-Crafted Heat Sink Ensures Peak Performance

A custom heat sink draws warmth away from the tube and internal components, allowing the WA-8000 to operate at an ideal temperature for the lowest noise and distortion. The heat sink not only optimizes performance but also simplifies tube replacement to minimize downtime. Musicians and studios alike will appreciate the WA-8000's consistently pristine results and reliability.

Authentic Tone Comes From Premium Components

At the heart of the WA-8000 is a carefully selected NOS 6AU6 tube and custom Lundahl transformer. Together, these high-quality components shape the open high end, focused midrange and rich lows that defined the WA-8000's inspiration. Premium components also grant the WA-8000 an impressively low self-noise, allowing it to capture every nuance of a performance without coloration.

Premium Cable Delivers a Pristine Signal

A high-quality GAC-7 cable from Gotham Audio connects the WA-8000 to its power supply. Built to the same exacting standards as the microphone itself, the premium cable minimizes signal loss and interference for recordings as clean as the WA-8000's renowned sound.
