Detail 01
Fully discrete signal path
The microphones use a discrete circuit design rather than an integrated signal path.

Independent shopping perspective
Built as a stereo pair, the black WA-84 combines a cardioid small-diaphragm condenser design with a fully discrete signal path. Its circuit includes a heavy nickel CineMag USA transformer alongside Fairchild transistors and Wima capacitors. Warm Audio positions the pair for professional and home studios, live work, and broadcast, with applications ranging from acoustic-electric instruments and drums to piano, strings, brass, and woodwinds. The transformer-based design is intended to bring a clear, smooth, enlarged character to recorded sources.
