It comes complete with a custom Lehle transformer, RPQ JFET preamp electronics, and a hotrod \"X\" motor, and is the quietest ribbon microphone ever produced. It retains the same sonic character as the passive R44C, but with an additional 18dB of output and greater flexibility with different preamplifiers. Many engineers prefer their A440s over their vintage RCA 44s due to the noise performance advantages.\u003cbr\u003eEffective on a wide range of instruments and rooms, the AEA A440 strengthens mids and lows while attenuating harsh high frequencies, to produce a multidimensional sound unlike any other microphone in the world.\u003cbr\u003eUsed to record any sound source, from singers to full orchestras, the AEA A440 is the ideal choice, as it captures the tone of any voice or instrument while imprinting its legendary ribbon character.\u003cbr\u003eThe R44 series microphones all share the authentic sound, feel, and appearance of the 1936-38 RCA 44BX. The R44 series microphones are all detailed, handcrafted replicas, using parts made to be interchangeable with an original RCA 44.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Principle: Pressure gradient transducer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eDirectional Pattern: Bidirectional\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency Range: \u0026lt;20 Hz to\u0026gt; 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePolarity: Pin 2 high for positive pressure in front of microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePolar Response: Native bidirectional pattern, figure-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHorizontal: Rejection up to 90 dB at right angles to front\/rear axis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eVertical: Level changes with angle of incidence, but frequency response is consistent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 136+ dB SPL (1% third harmonic \u0026gt; 1 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity: 30 mV \/ Pa (-33.5 dBV) in unloaded circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Impedance: 92 Ω broadband\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended Load Impedance: 1.0 k Ω or higher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePhantom Power: P48 phantom power, 7 mA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eConnector: XLR-3M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTransducer Element Material\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThickness: 1.8 μm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 4.7 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 59.7 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AEA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53993955197261,"sku":"AEAA440","price":7879.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/0643\/6173\/files\/108839-large_default.jpg?v=1779948533","url":"https:\/\/musicdelivery.net\/en\/products\/aea-a440-microfono-a-nastro-attivo","provider":"Music Delivery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
