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\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eLarge Sound, Small Size\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe WA-84 has a very LARGE sound for it’s small size and uniquely uses a heavy Nickel CineMag transformer in it’s 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 Warm chose to go the extra mile and tackle a more boutique design known for it’s it’s crystal clear, yet smooth, LARGE sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eBoutique Tone\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eWarm 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 sounds absolutely gorgeous and goes the extra mile in terms of signal integrity and smooth boutique tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eA Look Inside The WA-84\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eThe Capsule: The WA-84 utilizes a custom vintage-style capsule designed to emulate classic componentry and design techniques.
