Warm AudioWA-47jr SE Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone - Nickel
1/3
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
WA-47jr SE is a large-diaphragm cardioid condenser built around a gold-sputtered, single-backplate K47-style capsule and a fully discrete signal path. The fixed cardioid pattern concentrates capture at the front of the microphone while rejecting sound from the sides and rear, giving home or project-space sessions a more focused starting point. With 9dBA self-noise, 138dBA dynamic range, and 147dB maximum SPL, it is specified for both quieter and louder recording sources. A hard mount and leather storage pouch are included.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Tracking vocals, acoustic guitar, or podcast audio with a fixed front-facing cardioid pickup.
- Recording in small or untreated spaces where side and rear noise need rejection.
- Sessions that need a hard mount and storage pouch ready for setup and storage.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Shoppers who need selectable polar patterns; the microphone uses a fixed cardioid pattern.
