However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
The Warm Audio WA-87jr SE is built for vocalists, producers and musicians who want the iconic tone of a classic '87-style studio mic in a streamlined and accessible format. Using a single-backplate version of the original K87-style capsule, it faithfully recreates the same focused, polished sound that defined countless classic vocal recordings.
Product Ref: 344659
The WA-87jr SE brings the iconic character of the original ‘87-style microphone into a cleaner, more focused design. The mic centres around a single-backplate version of Warm Audio’s renowned K87-style capsule, which accurately mirrors the frequency response of vintage studio microphones responsible for some of the most recognisable vocal tones in history. This capsule delivers the classic midrange focus and detailed top-end that engineers have trusted for decades on everything from vocals and acoustic guitar to drum overheads and pianos.
With a fully discrete signal path and transformerless design, the WA-87jr SE offers a low-noise, high-headroom signal that captures every nuance without adding unwanted colour. It provides the warmth and clarity needed for professional recordings in home, project or commercial studios.
The WA-87jr SE uses a fixed cardioid polar pattern that picks up sound directly in front of the microphone and rejects off-axis noise from the sides and rear. This gives creators better control over their recordings, especially in untreated or acoustically imperfect environments. Whether you are recording vocals in a bedroom studio or tracking instruments in a rehearsal space, the WA-87jr SE helps you focus on the sound you want and reduce the sounds you do not.
Its cardioid pattern makes it ideal for close-miking sources like vocals, acoustic guitar and percussion, while also working well for voiceover or streaming setups where clarity and background rejection are essential. The result is a clean, polished sound that requires less work in post-production.
One of the key strengths of the WA-87jr SE is its ability to deliver professional sound without needing additional tools or setup. The microphone offers a wide dynamic range, meaning it can handle quiet and loud sources without distortion or loss of detail. Its ultra-low self-noise ensures quiet passages remain clean and natural, even during subtle vocal takes or soft acoustic performances.
The design removes the need for selectable polar patterns or extra switches, making it a plug-and-play solution for those who want to spend more time recording and less time tweaking settings. It is especially useful for solo artists, podcasters and home producers who need reliable results quickly.
The WA-87jr SE includes a custom hard mount and premium leather storage pouch. These essential accessories help protect the mic and make it easy to set up in any studio environment. The hard mount keeps the mic stable during recording, while the leather pouch protects it during storage or travel.
Every WA-87jr SE is hand-tested and inspected in Austin, Texas, by a dedicated team of technicians. Their focus on quality control ensures that each mic performs consistently across every unit, giving you confidence that your recordings will sound their best session after session. Backed by Warm Audio’s commitment to reliability, it is a dependable piece of gear for any setup.
