AEA R44CX 1936 Edition Studio Ribbon Microphone with Cable and Case 6dB more output than the original RCA 44B and BX
Sound is slightly more forward. Red accent marking.
The AEA R44CX has the authentic sound, feel and look of the 1936-38 RCA-44. A museum quality replica hand made by AEA using 1.8 micron ribbon material originally manufactured by RCA. Museum grade version features details such as a bronze investment cast yoke rather than the original zinc yoke (which corrode over time). The ribbon element is only 1.8 microns thick, fabricated from material originally manufactured for RCA. The Streamline Moderne "radio" finish (black with satin accents) is standard. R44C parts are also interchangeable with the original RCA 44B and BX. The microphone package includes a three-meter cloth covered Accusound Silver Studio Pro cable, a zippered canvas bag, and AEA 44VC vertical case for proper shipping and storage.
