AEA R44CNE Ribbon Microphone
Used in and in excellent condition. The 44CNE is a limited run of 100 that was built to honour NAMM’s 100th anniversary. It was designed to be easier to produce and thus more economical, despite being exactly the same mic sonically and electronically speaking.
Echoing the aesthetic appeal, the feel, and the genuine sound of the vintage RCA 44B, the AEA R44CNE comes with fully swappable components. It features a ribbon element that’s a mere 1.8 microns thick, crafted from NOS (New Old Stock), a material originally commissioned for RCA. It exhibits a standard “radio” finish in black/bright chrome.
Every R44CNE microphone, built to custom specifications, is accompanied by a cushioned mount and an AEA bespoke vertical case, ideal for storage and transportation. Besides, each unit is individually signed and numbered. The standout trait is the sound quality; it will transport you back to the era of Bing Crosby serenading “White Christmas”, whilst equally infusing a lively touch to contemporary guitars, vocals, and even drums!
