Sound On Sound Reviews the AEA A440
"There are now several active ribbon microphones on the market, but rather fewer that give the A440 serious competition. The obvious contenders are SE Electronics' Rupert Neve-designed RNR1, reviewed last month, and the Royer R122, but although these are both great mics in their own right, the A440 is significantly quieter, putting it in a class of its own when it comes to distant-miking applications...Once you've heard this mic, you'll always aspire to own it."
