The AEA A440 is a preamp-flexible, Phantom-powered version of the R44 with 18 dB of extra output. It is custom-painted with the RCA classic umber-colored transformer case. It is complete with a custom Lehle transformer, RPQ JFET preamp electronics and the "X" motor hotrod and is the quietest ribbon microphone ever manufactured. It retains the same sonic character of the passive R44C, but with an additional 18 dB of output and greater flexibility with different preamps. Many engineers favor their A440s over their vintage RCA 44s due to the advantages in noise performance.
At the low frequency end the A440 delivers bass with effortless authority. It has a flat frequency response and holds an accurate figure-eight polar pattern down to 20 Hz. The A440 has a smooth and articulate midrange, and at the high end, transients are quick and detailed without hard edges.
The AEA A440 maintains an iconic legacy of great ribbon mics by delivering a rich sound full of character and color. Effective on a broad range of instruments and rooms, it bolsters mids and lows while smoothing harsh high frequencies to produce a multi-dimensional sound unlike that of any microphone the world over. Used on everything from crooning vocalists to full orchestras, the A440 is the ideal choice to capture the tone of any voice or instrument while imparting its legendary ribbon character.
Amazing Microphone ! Super sizes everything ! Love it !
This is really a very nice sounding Microphone.
