SR-1A

The SR-1A is built in very small batches, very carefully. Simply put, it's been designed for just two purposes: to sound stunning and also to outlive us all. Something's gotta out live us all, right?

With its brawny build and inviting tone, the Stager SR-1A ribbon mic has both feet in the past with a brain in the future. This mammoth ribbon mic has some of the biggest, truest bottom-end you could hope to hear from a ribbon or condenser or anything else that turns sound into electricity for that matter. And it's heavy. Physically heavy...and that ain't for no reason. The SR-1A houses massive alnico magnets around a long ribbon in a precision metal housing. The output transformer, also made in-house, is a new toroid design that's responsible for the deep bass and open, lulling top-end.
