Warm Audio WA-87jr SE – Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone The Warm Audio WA-87jr SE is a condenser microphone that combines the legendary character of the classic “87-style” studio mic with a simplified, efficient design. It is ideal for home studios as well as professional recording sessions for vocals and instruments. Designed for users who want vintage analog sound without complicated switches or unnecessary functions, it focuses on what really matters – sound quality.

Product Features At the heart of the WA-87jr SE is a K87 capsule with a large diaphragm and single-backplate design, gold-sputtered for accuracy. This construction provides detailed highs and clear midrange – the foundation for present vocals, acoustic guitars, or piano. The fully discrete, transformerless circuit ensures a transparent, clean signal, while the fixed cardioid polar pattern focuses on the source and minimizes unwanted room noise.
