Description: New Demo Model.Enveloped in an elegant, matte black finish, the AEA R44 ACE Limited Edition heralds the 20th anniversary of the legendary AEA R44. Combining components of the R44CE with the active elements of the A440, the ACE delivers a classic sound with a modern aesthetic. Its limited run of 52 won’t last long, so draw the R44ACE into your hand.The R44C, AEA’s museum reproduction of the RCA 44BX, was first produced in 1998. To celebrate its 20-year run, we developed the active, cost-effective, and stylized R44ACE to memorialize the spirit of the R44 while making it affordable and appealing to a newer generation of ribbon mic adherents. The ACE is an exciting amalgamation of 1930s technology and modern production that delivers the R44’s classic sound in a new context.The R44ACE utilizes new old stock RCA ribbon material and boasts a full, rich tonality with a generous low end and the 44’s signature proximity effect. The active electronics within the R44ACE result in 12 dB more output than the original R44CE, so it’s highly useful when recording quiet sources and is optimized for use with any preamp. The R44ACE is handcrafted in Pasadena, CA, U.S.A.The R44ACE ships in a rugged, durable SKB case with custom foam inserts.
