WA2A Optical Compressor by Warm Audio

If you've been dreaming of an optical compressor for a while now, but have been putting off getting one because your budget is stretched a little too thin, Warm Audio now offer the perfect opportunity to get your hands on one. The WA-2A is developed in the same way as the LA-2A, which means it's a fully tube-driven compressor with a completely discrete signal path for warm, accurate sound with a character that's as smooth as honey. The WA-2A features praised CineMag input and output transformers while its Kenetek opto-cell is considered the world's best. This first-class compressor gives the original LA-2A a serious run for its money but is actually more attainable. It's time to stop dreaming and give your sound the analogue warmth it deserves.
