The R-10's compact size and mounting system allows for flexible, unobtrusive positioning. The R-10's 2.5-micron aluminum ribbon element is formed with our our patented direct-corrugation process and is protected by a 3-layer windscreen system and internally shock-mounted ribbon transducer.

The R-10's internally shockmounted ribbon transducer isolates the ribbon element from shocks and vibrations, increasing the ribbon element's durability.

After years of painstaking work, AEA has again begun production of the most important ribbon mic of all time: the AEA R44CE.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eRCA 44 ribbon microphones have remained an essential part of studio life well after RCA stopped manufacturing them in 1955. The sound and response of the 44 B\/BX were unlike anything else available, and was cherished for its smoothness, forgiving nature and unique tonal balance. As collectors began to buy up the supply of RCA 44’s through the 90’s, the availability of this wonderful ribbon mic to the studio was greatly endangered.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eKey features:\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eAn accurate reproduction of the original RCA Ribbon Mic\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eUses the same ribbon material as the original\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt to the highest studio standards possible\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eA single diaphragm Figure 8 ribbon microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eHigh null-axis rejection\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eCustom AEA Transformer\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eHigh SPL capability, max level of 140dB plus above 200Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eLow Self Noise\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eConsistent polar response\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eOperable in high humidity environments\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSounds equal to or better than the original RCA 44\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Principle: Velocity microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency Response: Below 30 Hz to above 20 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: 140 + dB SPL above 200Hz for 1% third harmonic\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Sensitivity: 2.25 mV \/ Pa into unloaded circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Impedance: 270 ohms broadband\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended Load: 1.2 K ohm or greater\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003ePowering: Not required or recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003ePolarity: Pin 2 high for positive pressure on the front of the microphone.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eConnector: XLR-3M wired to a 3 meter captive cable\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003ePolar Pattern: Native bi-directional pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eHorizontal: Level changes with angle, frequency response is consistent, -90 dB null at 90 \/ 270 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eVertical: Level changes with angle, reduced HF response above and below 0\/180 degree axis, null at 90\/270 degrees\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRibbon Thickness: 1.8 microns ( .0000018 meter ) of pure aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRibbon Width: 4.7 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eRibbon Length: 59.7 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eAccessories Included: Custom storage\/shipping case, stand adapter, manual and attached 3-meter microphone cable\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"AEA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42022717948084,"sku":"573044","price":9264.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3537\/2980\/products\/aea-rr4ce-1.jpg?v=1668009526"},{"product_id":"aea-ku5a","title":"AEA KU5A","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe supercardioid KU5A breaks new ground in ribbon technology with its acutely focused directionality that rejects bleed from other instruments, room reflections, and loud ambience in the studio and on stage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNever before has a ribbon mic delivered as much clarity and breadth of sound in a package so fit for both studio and live use.
