Just wanted to give a brief update on all things Signal Art as things enter the 'middle of the year lull' that is common in the audio industry... I have been trying to take advantage of this opportunity to catch up on work and am making progress but likely still looking at another 3 months before 100% of all backlogged WA tube mic upgrades are completed and shipped out... Even though I take great pride in these upgrades and like to give each one the time it deserves, I can't

Just a quick update on things. NAMM was a great show and it was good seeing all of my extended pro audio family once again. As always, travel seemed to get derailed by crazy weather but I made it back finally! Thanks again to everyone who poured in with orders to get in under the wire for the (now fully discontinued) WA tube mic mods. Now, if you'll excuse me I'll be spending the next 3 months in the workshop getting them all done... ugh... but seriously, thanks for these

Thank you to all who got in under the wire to set up their tube mic mods before the cutoff on the first. We are officially now only focused on the boutique, original builds going forward; although I will probably have to spend much of the next 3 months catching up on all of the upgrade requests that have come through in the last couple of months, including many who got their orders in early but have deferred sending them in for a few months so as to not be without them for s

Just a reminder, we will be taking all mic mods off the site on Thurs when we do website maintenance... if anyone had a lingering need to send in a Warm Audio tube mic for upgrades, speak now or forever hold your peace (actually, just place the order by the 1'st and it can be sent in anytime thereafter)... thanks.

Just a quick reminder, as of today there are only 2 weeks left to put in orders for our famous Warm Audio tube mic upgrade/modifications. We will be discontinuing this work on Jan 1 2026 to focus purely on original handcrafted builds and of course the main company thereafter. We have had many people take us up on these mods and will spend much of the first quarter 2026 fulfilling all of them... but will not accept any more orders after Jan 1, 2026. We will also stop taking

I have gotten a lot of questions about black friday deals on the mic mods and other things, and hesitated to do it just because of the rising cost on shipping and parts, the mods have very little margin to play with... however, yes, through the end of the month you can use the coupon code $50 OFF! on any mic mods, $100 OFF! on any pair of mic mods, or $200 OFF! on any handcrafted mic orders. Just be aware, as I have stated copiously elsewhere, that this is the busy season fo

As promised, you can use the code "$200 OFF!" to get a discount on any of our handcrafted u47/u48 mics, including the solid state Spirit 47 Tube microphone which uses the Phaedrus Audio tube. The coupon code is not good on mic mods or the M49 reservation (those are already pre-discounted) but strictly on the hanmade 47's and 48's. I will leave this coupon active thru probably the end of the year, but at least thru mid december. Best, Chad

Well, we decided to finally pull the trigger and begin preparations to release our take on the highly venerated M49. We sent out a very limited email/newsletter a few days ago exclusively for the people who had asked to be notified when we had decided to pull the trigger, and invite them to be first in line if they would like to put a 50% deposit down on the M49. I am now extending that to a few more people who may be interested and making that announcement publicly here in

So, this quarter will be sort of a 'last call' for the popular WA tube mic mods that we have offered since the beginning of the company...

We have a new imported M7 capsule that is now available as a 'baseline' edition 47 or 48, to compliment the already existing budget...

I've been holding off on showing this product as I wanted to wait for professional photography to get done; but since I don't know when...

It's been a while so I thought I'd give an update on things that we are up to, things that will hopefully come out this year or next...

new OPR M7's hot off the press! If you're an early customer of SAE, you may know (or even own one of these early gems) that we started...

gold edition shown, though the mod is for the black or gold edition We are proud to announce the WA-8000 mod at long last, the final...

Coming soon! As I begin to shut down the workshop and the home for the week of NAMM, I got to a perfect stopping point in our research on...

The fireworks outside my window reminded me to remind everyone that we have a sale going on through the 1'st... after tomorrow, forever...

Hi, we're a little late to the game on the black friday sales, but thru the end of the year (thru Jan 1) we will give $200 off on the...

I always had a soft spot for this underrated microphone from about 20-25 years ago. The successor to an even more robustly built Groove...

Many people believe that Signal Art began with modifying the Warm Audio 47 and 87... not true. It actually began with the Sterling ST59...

Over the years, we've been approached by customers who either lost their power supply or obtained a second hand WA-251 that they wanted...
