AEA N8

Due to the success of the N22 the AEA N8 was designed to be the most open sounding ribbon microphone ever made. The N 22 is the perfect ribbon mic for drum overhead or room mics, strings, orchestras and much more. AEA have employed a similar design philosophy as the famous R88 ribbon mic allowing the N8 to achieve amazing transparency when capturing sound with a superior transient response making this mic the perfect addition to your studio collection.
