Warm Audio WA-8000

The WA-8000 is a true reproduction of a 90s modern classic known as the go-to mic for rap, hip-hop, R&B, and pop. The original 90s 800-style mic has delivered platinum recordings for artists such as Dr. Dre, Mariah Carey, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Rihanna, Drake, and many more. 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. Whether on vocals, drums, acoustic guitar, or in the room, the WA-8000 rises to the occasion and delivers all of that signature clarity, beat for beat.

Like the original 800-style mic, the WA-8000 includes all the features that deliver a complete and professional recording experience. Using an all-brass, custom K67-style capsule coupled with the original circuit design, the WA-8000 captures every subtle nuance of vocal and acoustic performances. The WA-8000 uses a custom-made transformer from Lundahl, Sweden, delivering unmatched top-end and detail that listeners quickly recognize when selecting the WA-8000 to capture a performance. The WA-8000 uses a NOS tube to match the tonal character of the original, known for consistent performance without overheating.
