The Reference. When fidelity is the goal, the Manley Reference Gold Mic is the solution. Its nimble CK12-style American-made capsule, open grille, and continually adjustable pickup pattern design allow it to hear deep into a room, capturing nuances and subtleties that other mics miss. It is real. It is the truth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Manley Gold Rerference Multi-Pattern Microphones are a statement, quite simply, of the finest microphones that money can buy in the pursuit of truly accurate musical recordings. The Gold Reference Series employ our own design of large capsules (1.25 inch overall, 1 inch diaphragm diameter) which are executed to precise tolerances made possible by modern micro-milling machinery available today in California. The capsule rings and back-plates are milled from solid brass. The gold diaphragm film comes from Germany and is tensioned using proprietary techniques by David Josephson ensuring capsule-to-capsule constancy, combined with the speed, \"air\", and superb ultra-high frequency response you have only dreamt about.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe all-tube electronics in the MANLEY REFERENCE SERIES MICROPHONES are built around two triodes in cascade forming an entire gain-block. We have recently switched to a dual-triode 12AT7 tube, easily obtainable and replaceable, mounted in a ceramic socket. (We originally used 6072A until it became impossible to find quiet ones out of the NOS dreck left on the market, then we used 12AX7 for awhile.) The output is coupled through a MANLEY output transformer of unparalleled quality and substantial physical size employing nickel laminations with \"hum bucking\" bi-filar windings, encased in mu-metal. The polar pattern control is continuously variable between the OMNI, CARDIOID, and FIGURE 8 positions vastly increasing this mic’s versatility. The Gold Mics make it possible to exactly tailor the proximity effect to achieve the desired character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have chosen a very open weave stainless-steel grille for the capsule window which allows all the highs to reach the capsule unimpaired letting the engineer choose if, when, and how much pop screen is appropriate. As a result, the Reference Gold reaches to the furthest extremes of highs and lows with gorgeous natural acoustic smoothness. Some engineers tell us it sometimes \"hears\" more than they do! A locking 6-pin XLR connector for the 30 foot power supply cable carries the stringently filtered B+ and regulated heater voltages from the separate dedicated power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe audio signal exits the PSU via a traditional 3-pin XLR jack. The microphone body is machined from brass providing excellent shielding properties, polished to a high lustre, then plated with 24 karat gold for an impressive finish, inspiring confidence in artists and producers. Our proprietary precision suspension system is provided with each REFERENCE MICROPHONE (the capsule itself is mounted onto a neoprene-rubber shock-mount.) Because the entire working \"guts\" of the microphone may be removed for service in one piece from the housing, it is envisioned that the microphone need not be removed from the suspension.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe also provide a very useful swivel of our own design with every REFERENCE MICROPHONE; its T-bar handle and locking clutch action require no tools to adjust.

Smooth. Versatile. Taking inspiration from the fabled Sony C-37A, Manley Labs introduces the Manley Reference Silver Microphone. Featuring an American built capsule by David Josephson and a Manley designed circuit, this microphone has a warm and rich tone. The Manley Reference Silver Microphone offers a mechanical selector on the rear of the head basket that is switchable between cardioid and omni pick-up patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoasting a mic grade 5670 vacuum tube, Manley IRON® transformers, and a low-noise switch mode power supply, the Manley Reference Silver Microphone is a studio workhorse. This microphone is at home in-front of instruments that range from female vocalists, to saxophones, from drum overheads to banjos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the Manley Reference Silver Microphone where you might be thinking about a ribbon, and use it with confidence! DETAILS After 27 years since the debut of the first Manley Reference Gold and Reference Cardioid tube microphones which have since become modern classics, we introduce to you the Manley Reference Silver Microphone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe audio inspiration for this handcrafted beauty begins with the 1950s classic Sony C-37a microphone, and specifically with California capsule maker David Josephson's fantastic recreation of the C-37’s C-3 capsule which features an adjustable acoustic chamber on the rear of the capsule for the user to switch between Cardioid and Omni pickup patterns (see the adjacent photo for a close-up). This distinctive capsule is the heart of the rich and creamy tone that the Manley Reference Silver Mic delivers today, and reliably with a five year factory warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe old SONY mics are super-rare at this point, if you can find a decent working example of one! Inside the mic, we are using a different circuit from our other two microphones. The fragile high impedance signal from the capsule first hits a FET sitting underneath the 5670 vacuum tube’s cathode which then amplifies the signal into a more robust voltage that our hand-wound Manley IRON® microphone output transformer sends out to your microphone preamplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOutput level from this mic is a wee bit lower compared to our other two microphones, but after careful consideration coming through the Beta-testing phase of development, we decided to leave it there as this mic will find a forever-home in front of your loudest instruments such as snare drum, guitars, and toms. It's a real natural there! Sonic character of the Reference Silver is on the rich and warm side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll find this microphone stunning with female vocals and saxophones, with a round character that is never sibilant or boxy. A brass section will sound rich and cohesive. This microphone with its bountiful and warm middle tonality also is a natural for drum overheads where you might have too much brightness off the cymbals from other microphones. It is a very classic sounding microphone, which is to be expected since its innovative capsule design harkens back to the 1950s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse the Manley Reference Silver Microphone where you might be thinking about a ribbon, and use it with confidence! The trailblazing power supply is a brand-new derivative of our wildly successful SMPS already in use in the Manley CORE® Reference Channel Strip, Manley FORCE® 4-channel microphone preamplifier, and Manley Nu Mu and ELOP+ Stereo Limiter Compressors designed for us by the worldwide experts in this technology, Bruno Putzeys and Nand Eeckhout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis power supply was designed for us, designed for vacuum tubes, and designed especially for audio fidelity. Numerous listening comparisons again prove the sonic superiority of this power supply. All lines are regulated, all rails come out at super-low impedance, and there is zero 50\/60 Hz ripple component present in the chassis as the module runs at a much higher frequency well above the audible range. It is an efficient design in the high 90th percentile, and it functions it any mains input voltage from 90 to 250 V AC meaning no reconfiguration is necessary when traveling around the world. Just plug it in! It is a well-smart invention light years ahead of older linear power supply designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are going to brag about our awesome power supply, for sure! Our proprietary precision suspension system is provided with each Reference Microphone (the capsule itself is mounted onto a rubber shock-mount.)

Warm Audio have partnered with Gotham Audio in Switzerland to use their very carefully built high-end 7 pin “GAC-7 cable”. Using this cable increases top end presence and the overall size of the recorded image in the stereo field by reducing phase shift and the parasitic effect often experienced in poorly built cables.

We wanted to improve on the standard “tube” design that was popularized by our chief designer in the late 2000s. First, we created a windowed design for the shockmount. This allows you to access switches on your microphone without affecting your carefully-placed positioning. Second, we source aerospace-grade suspension bands that won’t break, sag, crack, or stretch over time. The bands can be positioned either vertically\/horizontally or diagonally, to tightly hold microphones of varying diameter. The V1 has slight insets machined into the body, so the suspension bands “lock in” easily to the microphone for a more secure hold. The main body and knob are precision-cast from a high-grade zinc alloy and finished with a durable powdercoat. The pivot is injection-molded from high-impact ABS to keep your mic placement locked in place. The pivot is also inset with both 5\/8″-24 and 3\/8″-16 threads to be compatible with any microphone stand. This shockmount was designed to fit any microphone with a diameter below 30mm, so it can be used with several brands of microphone, including almost any pencil microphone – and even ribbon microphones.

We wanted to improve on the standard “tube” design that was popularized by our chief designer in the late 2000s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst, we created a windowed design for the shockmount. This allows you to access switches on your microphone without affecting your carefully-placed positioning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSecond, we source aerospace-grade suspension bands that won’t break, sag, crack, or stretch over time. The bands can be positioned either vertically\/horizontally or diagonally, to tightly hold microphones of varying diameter. The V1 microphone has slight insets machined into the body, so the suspension bands “lock in” easily to the microphone for a more secure hold.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe main body and knob are precision-cast from a high-grade zinc alloy and finished with a durable powdercoat. The pivot is injection-molded from high-impact ABS to keep your mic placement locked in place. The pivot is also inset with both 5\/8″-24 and 3\/8″-16 threads to be compatible with any microphone stand.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis shockmount was designed to fit any microphone with a diameter below 30mm, so it can be used with several brands of microphone, including almost any pencil microphone – and even ribbon microphones.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen not in use, your V1S should be stored in its padded pinewood storage case.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are four different V1 systems to suit your needs.

The WA-47 is designed for pro studio, home studio, live, and broadcast applications and sounds great on vocals, acoustic\/electric guitars, acoustic\/electric bass, drums, piano, strings, brass\/woodwind instruments, and an array of other sources. The classic ‘47 became extremely popular in the 1960’s and is now considered one of the greatest microphones ever made. The classic ‘47 is still widely used today in professional recording studios but have become extremely rare and expensive to acquire.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDesigning the WA-47 to sound like the classic ‘47 was no easy task, especially considering that some of the vintage components are no longer available. We compared and listened to 2 different vintage ‘47 mics and found that they both sounded amazing but also sounded a little different from each other. These comparison tests became the benchmark for tailoring our WA-47 sonics to sit right in with these 2 vintage ‘47 mics. We are pleased to release such a gorgeous sounding classic to the market at a price that’s reachable to more people than ever before. We are also proud to mention that the WA-47 sounds legitimately indistinguishable to the vintage ‘47’s we auditioned on several sources.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs with all Warm Audio products, we focus heavily on quality components to ensure we release the best sounding product possible. The WA-47 is packed with top end components that are carefully sourced from many of the top pro audio component suppliers in the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrue '47 style capsule\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe WA-47 utilizes a custom reproduction of the vintage k47 style capsule that was used in the classic ‘47 microphone - designed with the same hole pattern and frequency response. Every Warm Audio capsule is made in the same small assembly house in a clean-room environment, and packaged in its own protective jewel case until the moment it is loaded into the microphone. Each capsule is visually inspected and electrically tested for imperfections.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA large part of any microphone's tone comes from its capsule, and the true k47 style capsule used in the WA-47 is not easily manufactured or typically found in affordable condenser microphones.

Our version of this capsule (model# WA-47-B-80v) is carefully manufactured by an Australian capsule manufacturer who's precision and repeatability allows us to nail the vintage sonics of the most important sonic piece of this classic style of microphone.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Tube\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA Slovak Republic JJ 5751 vacuum tube is a lower gain, low noise tube that forces much of the sonics of the capsule and transformer to be heard more significantly than some higher gain tubes might allow. We auditioned 4 different tube brands and fell in love with the JJ 5751.

When auditioning the WA-47 and other tube microphones we learned quite a bit about 7 pin cables and how the shielding and wire gauge size can drastically change the sonics of a tube microphone. We have partnered with Gotham Audio in Switzerland to use their very carefully built top-end 7 pin GAC-7 cable. Using this cable increases top end presence and the overall size of the recorded image in the stereo field, by reducing phase shift and the parasitic effect often found in poorly built cables. Gotham Audio is very expensive and boutique in nature and should not be considered a small addition to the WA-47 package.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Capacitors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe WA-47 uses a polystyrene coupling capacitor for uncompressed top-end response from the capsule, wima film capacitors throughout, and an imported Solen French capacitor on its output driving the TAB-Funkenwerk (AMI) USA output transformer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Custom true '47 capsule reproduction (k47 style) - Model# WA-47-B-80v\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Capsule makeup: Gold sputtered, dual large diaphragm, single backplate, 6 microns NOS mylar (PET film)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* TAB-Funkenwerk (AMI) USA output transformer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Sovtek 5751 vacuum tube\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Gotham 3 meter GAC-7, 7-pin tube microphone cable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Wima, Solen French, and Polystyrene capacitors\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Self-noise: 11dBA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Polar Patterns: 9 patterns - Cardioid, Omni, figure-of-eight + 6 mixed patterns\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Dynamic range: 130dBA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Maximum SPL: 140dB (\u0026lt;0.5% THD)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*Frequency Range: 20 Hz~20 kHz\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Output Impedance: 200 ohms\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Rated Load Impedance: ≥2kOhms\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* S\/N Ratio: 82dBA\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Equivalent Noise: 10dBA (IEC651)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* External IEC grounded PSU\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Total Weight - 9 lbs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Mic Diameter: 60mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Mic Length: 254mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e* Includes: Microphone, Wood box, Power Supply Unit, Shockmount, Gotham 7 pin GAC-7 cable, IEC power cable\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eAlso available in Limited Edition Titanium Finish with Peli Case\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Warm Audio","offers":[{"title":"WA-47 Nickel","offer_id":32208852353156,"sku":"","price":1915.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"WA-47TS Titanium Limited Edition","offer_id":47042554790055,"sku":null,"price":2099.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0334\/9659\/6612\/files\/Warm_Audio_WA-47_3d06f8f1-ecd2-4d77-9e6f-ff140641b2db.png?v=1780625446"},{"product_id":"warm-audio-wa-47jr-large-diaphragm-fet-transformerless-condenser-microphone","title":"Warm Audio WA-47jr Large-Diaphragm FET Transformerless Condenser Microphone","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\" id=\"docs-internal-guid-68f5ec55-7fff-a14d-c2cf-301c55c1b473\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; color: #000000; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eThe WA-47jr is a contemporary version of the iconic ‘47-style microphone, known for rich analog warmth, with a modern circuit design and professional recording features.

In a market awash with differing versions of an ageing design concept, the Aston HALO is a huge leap forward in reflection filter technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are several key areas on which Aston focused on improving currently available technology, most notably for Isolation, absorption, mounting hardware and the general performance as a studio tool for achieving portable room control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHALO’s unique design is also patented… it’s much bigger, wraps around top and bottom to a maximum rear depth of almost 100mm to improve room isolation and absorption without dominating the room sound. Its textured and wave-formed surface also helps diffuse direct sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMarket research revealed that many people have a hard time with getting a good performance when using other reflection filters because they are not very ‘creative-friendly’ environments.

It's great for modeling because it’s engineered to be great at simply capturing accurate sound. Designed and built in Europe, Edge Solo features a 6-micron gold-sputtered membrane, low-resonance body and low-reflection headbasket. With custom electronics designed by Antelope's experienced engineers, Solo delivers impressive dynamic range and frequency response. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003ePlug 'n' Play\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike the more complex modeling microphones in the Edge series, Solo features a fixed cardioid pickup pattern and feeds a single mono XLR input channel on your interface.

Hand-built in our Burbank California factory, the R-10’s sound and performance are all-Royer and it handles SPLs of up to 160 dB @ 1 kHz. The R-10’s compact size and mounting system allows for flexible, unobtrusive positioning. The R-10’s 2.5-micron aluminum ribbon element is formed with our our patented direct-corrugation process and is protected by a 3-layer windscreen system and internally shock-mounted ribbon transducer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ribbon transducer is wired for humbucking to reject electromagnetically induced noise. The R-10’s built-in windscreen provides superior protection from air blasts and plosives. It also reduces proximity effect (bass buildup from close miking) so guitar cabinets and acoustic instruments can be close-miked with less bass buildup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe R-10’s internally shockmounted ribbon transducer isolates the ribbon element from shocks and vibrations, increasing the ribbon element’s durability.

R-10 recordings of violins, ukuleles, steel-stringed and nylon-stringed acoustic guitars, banjos and other stringed instruments are warmth and natural and fit into mixes easily. “Airing out” the recorded track by opening up a bit of 12K with an EQ often gives surprisingly good results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVocals record record warm and naturally on an R-10, and the EQ-friendliness of the R-10 allows for dialing in completely different sounds with liberal use of EQ. Try experimenting with cutting bass at 100 Hz and opening up 12K by 3 to 6 dB (or more!). Some great vocal performances were recorded on highly EQ’d ribbon mics (Sixpence None the Richer “There She Goes Again” and “Kiss Me” for example).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor audio examples of EQ’d vocals, visit our Audio\/Video Library.

Conceived to render acoustic spaces as faithfully as possible, the new N8 microphone excels in capturing drum overheads and rooms, strings, classical ensembles, and orchestras. As such, it is the ideal complement to the N22 microphone. But even when used up close, the N8 delivers exceptional clarity and warmth, while also taking EQ extremely well without ever being harsh. By employing a similar design philosophy as used on the popular R88 stereo ribbon microphone, the N8 achieves an astonishingly transparent sound with a superior transient response that lets AEA’s famed Big Ribbon truly shine.

Just like all other AEA products, the N8 is 100% manufactured in Pasadena, CA. The N8 is the second member of AEA’s NUVO series of microphones.
