Need info on Wisdom Audio DCAB-1 microphone

72.87.56.174

I need to know the brand of calibrated microphone that was supplied with the Wisdom Audio DCAB-1.

This was the digital EQ/RTA unit for the Adrenaline speaker series that replaced the older Analog Brain. The DCAB-1 is no longer being made and the factory doesn't have information about the mic.

If you know the brand, please let me know. If you're a DCAB-1 owner and have the mic, but it's private-branded by Wisdom Audio, I'd appreciate some photos of the mic.

If there's a another forum where I'd be more likely to find a DCAB-1 owner, please let me know.

Thanks for any help.
Richard

If you can post a pic we might identify the OEM

  To clarify, I don't have the mic. That's why I need to know the brand. If someone else could post a photo of the mic, that would be great.

    I was hoping that you had a pic from the maker.

      Maybe it looked like this or in silver?

      There are about a dozen copies of that design, all made in China. In any case, you need a calibrated microphone. Ask Wisdom to find out what kind of power they feed to the microphone. Maybe they even sell you a microphone?

        I just found from Wisdom Audio that the mic was custom-made for them. It's a very special mic with extraordinarily flat response. The DCAB-1's mic input is specifically designed for it. My problem has been solved. Thanks.

        Does it mean you got a suitable microphone?

        Yes. It's a long story with little relevance to others.
