“Whether I’m at any one of the major Hollywood scoring stages or in a small or home studio, I record with AEA ribbon mics in almost every session.”

“AEA Microphones, specifically the N8 Stereo Pair, coupled with the RPQ2, give me the exact warmth, transparency and detail that I had been searching for!”

Artists
Greg Curtis / The Bridge Recording

“What I like about the KU4s is that they are a rendition of the originals that leaves nothing to be desired.”

Artists
Don Zientara / Fugazi, Minor Threat

“[The N8s] are magnificent for guitar amps, vocals, brass, and stringed instruments! They have a good deal of top end, yet are never harsh. Smooth. Very smooth!”

Artists
Greg Norman / Electrical Audio

“Those [N8s] are getting tried on everything. I love the durability and eq of it. I’ve been a fan of using it on bass amps, and brass actually.”

Artists
Morten Lindberg / Lindberg Lyd, 2L

“The N8 provides the best focus mics I’ve ever heard; they blend into the main array as butter.”

Artists
Jeff Ballard / Brad Mehldau, Ray Charles

“The [N8s] sound absolutely phenomenal!! It’s shocking to tell you the truth. The mic sound is so honest, so close to what the drums sound like. I couldn’t be more satisfied.”

Artists
Pierre De Reeder / Rilo Kiley, She & Him

“[With the N8s] there was an openness that I’ve just never really heard quite so ‘naturally’ before. And there was a depth that these gave, too, that was just astonishing.”

Artists
Taylor Hales / Electrical Audio

“[The N8] has also shone on anything where some girth and low-end and low-mid tilt were called for: small or nasal-sounding vocals; horns; drum overheads recording bright cymbals; tink-y percussion.”

“The silky and transparent sound of the N8 makes it the perfect microphone for recording acoustic music. The N8’s almost crystalline quality allows you to forget the microphone is even there.”

“The R84 is aces across the board with sound quality. Musically capturing exactly what I’m looking for and built like a tank!”

Artists
Brad Haehnel / Pixar, Life of Pi

“The R88 has become an indispensable tool in my mic collection… it is always somewhere in my orchestral brass setups.”

Artists
Ben Tolliday / Lord Huron, Hozier

“The N8 has wonderful natural sonic characteristics… a very focused tone that captures acoustic instruments like no other mic I own.”
