WA-87 R2: Updated And Upgraded
Our Sam Ash experts described the original WA-87 as a game changer when it was first introduced to the Studio Universe back in 2016 because it made the looks and authentic vintage sonics of this style of mic affordable for the very first time.

The WA-87 R2 (Revision 2) successfully builds on that legacy, using updated circutry and components to get you even closer to the sound,vibe and performance of the original '60s classic microphones we all know and love.

Notable upgrades include a custom wound cinemag transformer for a slightly hotter signal with more natural gain, new fairchild transistor, upgraded nickel-plated brass enclosure for reduced handling noise/component protection, and a more rounded head shape which allows the capsule to breathe a bit more.
