Front End Audio has a fantastic deal on this factory direct B-Stock microphone! This WA-8000 arrived to us directly from Warm Audio quality control where they deemed it as "B-Stock" for whatever reason. We have fully inspected this microphone 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 microphone. Otherwise, this microphone is brand new and carries a full manufacturers warranty. This is your opportunity to grab a deal on a "just like new" WA-8000 from Warm Audio!

Engineered true to spec, the WA-8000 meets all of the critical specifications of the original, giving you the true sound of modern R&B and Hip hop for an unprecedented value.

What We Think

avatar

At Front End Audio, we think the WA-8000 is one of the rare microphones hat genuinely delivers on the promise of a classic sound without the classic price tag. It captures the forward, glossy vocal character people chase in the C800G: bright, detailed, and mix-ready while still feeling musical and usable across a wide range of voices. Is it identical to the Sony? Of course not, but it gets surprisingly close where it counts, and more importantly, it inspires confidence when you put it up on a vocalist. For many artists and studios, it’s not just a substitute for me, it’s a legitimate mic that holds its own in real-world sessions, and a 1/16th the price, I consider it a must have!
