For home studio musicians seeking vintage-inspired gear with modern functionality, the WA-87 R2 bundle has you covered.

Iconic Circuitry Reimagined

The WA-87 R2 condenser mic revives the circuitry that defined '60s recording studios. Warm Audio spent countless hours perfecting the sound of the original, using top components like a NOS Fairchild transistor and Wima capacitors. With three polar patterns—cardioid, omni and figure-8—you can tailor the mic to suit vocals, acoustic instruments, drum overheads and more. A bigger head basket provides extra capsule space for a balanced tone with vintage warmth and articulated highs. For pro-level recording at a fraction of the cost, the WA-87 R2 delivers.

Redesigned Transformer Increases Versatility

A redesigned Cinemag USA transformer gives the WA-87 R2 a higher output and improved frequency response compared to the original WA-87. The mic pairs perfectly with modern preamps, providing ample level for any application. An 80Hz high-pass filter reduces unwanted low-end rumble. With its upgraded transformer and filter, the WA-87 R2 brings '60s studio sound into today's recording environments.

Premium Headphones for Critical Listening

The included WA-CAB headphones provide the comfort and accuracy needed for monitoring tracks or mixing. Large 45 mm Neodymium drivers render the subtlest details with realism at any volume. A closed-back design blocks outside noise so you can focus on the audio coming through the headphones. Padded ear cups and an adjustable headband enable long sessions with minimal fatigue. For professional results, use the WA-CAB headphones to evaluate your recordings with confidence.
