“There are very few pieces of equipment that can handle the amount of tasks I put the KU5A up against. It handled all of them effortlessly with the perfect amount of clarity and enjoyable qualities. It’s a winner, hands down.”

“Their size, shape, and weight make them far easier to place than the bulkier ribbons I’m used to. The N8s are the closest thing to a perfect ribbon mic I’ve heard.”

“I use my R88 on every record I make. It’s often found over or around the drum kit, on piano, used as an ensemble mic to capture a stereo spread, and even on acoustic guitar. I love it and couldn’t imagine not having it around.”

Artists
Ryan Hewitt / Avett Brothers, Red Hot Chili Peppers

“I love my R88! The stereo imaging is incredible and the depth of field I can achieve in my recordings is pretty stunning. The top end is beautifully natural sounding, especially for drum overheads and piano.”
