Warm Audio Flight Case for WA-87 R2 Condenser Microphone, Aluminum Shell

Warm Audio WA-87 R2 Flight Case: Road-Ready Protection for Your Investment Mic

This Warm Audio flight case is a purpose-built protective case designed to carry and store the WA-87 R2 large-diaphragm condenser microphone. It replaces the stock cardboard box with a rugged, travel-grade shell so your microphone is protected every time it leaves the mic locker. The interior foam is molded specifically to the WA-87 R2, so the mic never rattles, shifts, or takes a hit. For anyone who gigs, does location work, or simply wants long-term peace of mind, a dedicated case is one of the smartest small upgrades you can make. It turns a delicate studio microphone into something you can confidently pack, carry, and hand off.

Aluminum Construction and Molded Foam That Actually Protects

The case uses a high-strength, low-weight aluminum shell that resists crushing and impacts without adding meaningful bulk to your kit. Inside, the main compartment is filled with rubberized foam that has been custom-molded to the exact shape of the WA-87 R2, holding it firmly in place so vibration and shock cannot reach the capsule. The top lid is lined with soft ribbed foam that presses gently against the microphone and shields its finish from scuffs. Recessed latches and a recessed handle keep hardware from snagging on cables and cases in transit, while reinforced corners take the brunt of any bumps. Together these details mean the microphone is cushioned on every side rather than just sitting loose in a box.

Who Needs It and When

This case is for engineers, studios, and performers who own a WA-87 R2 and want it protected during transport to sessions, rehearsals, and gigs. It is equally valuable for long-term studio storage, keeping dust and humidity off a microphone that may sit unused between projects. If you regularly move gear between rooms or locations, a molded case dramatically reduces the risk of a costly accident. It is a simple, one-time upgrade that protects a microphone you rely on. For a road-ready or well-organized studio, it is exactly the kind of accessory that pays for itself the first time it prevents a drop.
