NOW LET'S GET STARTED!
INTRODUCTION
The WA-14 is based on a classic condenser microphone that has been used on countless hit records. The
WA-14 utilizes classic circuit topology, including the coveted all-brass, edge terminated, dual backplate
CK12 capsule found on the earliest versions. The WA-14 features a custom wound transformer by
CineMag USA, and an all discrete signal path featuring tantalum and WIMA film capacitors. The WA-
14 can be used on an array of sources, including: punchy warm and intimate lead vocals, aggressive guitars,
and heavy percussion. The WA-14 provides a realism, thickness, and detail that is true to the vintage
sonics. Referencing a vintage circuit we preferred, and designing the PCB in accordance with the methods
of that era; we feel this microphone offers a faithful representation of the sought-after, vintage sound.
