True Reproduction Of A 90s Modern-Classic

Just like the original, the WA-8000 boasts a natural and open top end, supremely clear midrange, and the ability to render detail beyond most mics on the planet.

Components:
Custom K-67 Inspired Capsule
Like the original, the WA-8000 uses an upgraded all-brass, custom K-67 inspired capsule coupled with the original circuit design, the WA-8000 is able to achieve true-to-spec results. The capsule is a significant part of the WA-8000’s ability to capture every subtle nuance of vocal and acoustic performances.
Transformer From Lundahl Sweden
We paired the true-to-spec capsule and circuit design with a large-core transformer, custom made for the WA-8000 from Lundahl in Sweden. Transformer selection plays a critical role in the open top end and enormous soundscape that listeners quickly recognize when selecting the WA-8000 to capture an intricate performance.
NOS Tube With Critical Heat Sink
The WA-8000 uses an NOS (New Old Stock) 6AU6 vacuum tube to match the tonal character of the original. Paired with the tube is a custom-designed heat sink that is essential in reducing heat inside the mic, allowing the tube to operate at optimal temperature. When the tube can operate without overheating, self-noise and distortion virtually disappear, adding to the mic’s astonishingly clean sonic character.
Critical Polar Patterns
Capture focused lead vocals & instruments with the cardioid pattern, or set the WA-8000 to omnidirectional mode to capture room tones, reflections, background vocals, and much more.
