Front End Audio has a fantastic deal on this factory direct B-Stock microphone! This WA73 arrived to us directly from Warm Audio quality control where they deemed it as "B-Stock" for whatever reason. We have fully inspected this unit and you will be hard pressed to find a flaw! However, in the nature of being B-Stock, do expect a minor cosmetic issue but rest assured that it will have absolutely no impact on the functionality or performance of this preamp. Otherwise, this unit is brand new and carries a full manufacturers warranty. This is your opportunity to grab a deal on a "just like new" WA73 from Warm Audio!
The Warm Audio WA73 is the most accurate single channel 73 style reproduction microphone preamp made today. If you have listened to music in the last 30 years then you know the tone of the WA73! The Warm Audio WA-73 is modeled after the classic 73-Style Preamp, which without a doubt defined the tone of rock/pop music for decades. These classic preamps have been use in every studio around the world as the tonal center piece of countless hits. With the 73-Style preamp so highly desired by engineers and studios, Warm Audio saw the need for a high quality replication. However, the Warm Audio WA-73 is not just another clone. Years of research, reverse engineering, meticulous design, and component sourcing was put into the WA-73 before Warm Audio was satisfied, that they had created the best 73 style preamp in the market. After putting the WA73 through the paces in the studio, the folks here at Front End Audio have to agree.
The WA-73 is excellent sounding all on types of microphones and sound sources- along with that most important tone that we have all heard over and over again on the music we listed too. The WA-73 is the most authentic reproduction made today and every component from the custom Carhnhill Transformers to the Capacitors and Output Transistors are identical to the original. On top of that, every unit is hand wired and assembled ensuring that all quality and performance standards have been met. There is no reason why this preamp, or a pair, should not be in your studio.
