In the belief that “ the joy of music is only found in ‘Real-Sound’”, SPEC have been developing and marketing high-end audio products with the wish of “communicating and sharing the sensations and also the excitement of their “Real-Sound” music with their customers”.

Established on 6 January 2010 they are based in Tokyo with Syuzou Ishimi at the helm as the SPEC President.

Nu Nu Distribution got in touch to tell us that they are now distributing the RSP-501 “Real-Sound” Processor which they say will help bring out the full potential of your amplifier and speakers, delivering realistic sound full of musicality.

“When the music is playing back on any audio systems, generally the counter-electromotive force always occurs in the voice coil of the speaker unit, due to the changes in amplifier output over time. And this counter-electromotive current returns to the amp via the speaker cord, which can make it difficult to drive the speaker in accordance with the input current”. The RSP-501EX aims to absorb some counter-electromotive current and reduce the fluctuations in speaker impedance characteristics, particularly in the mid to high ranges. And NuNu say this can help make it possible to drive the speaker more faithfully, helping to improve the sound resolution and the start-up also reproduces opposing natural resonances. Above all they say that you may find the deep, rich and fascinating tonal characters you have never experienced with RSP-501EX from your favourite audio system.

The unit is suitable for speakers with an impedence of 10 Ohms or lower and amps with an output of 1kW or lower. Each package contains two units, a polishing cloth and the instruction manual.

Price is £495 including VAT with NuNu adding that the effects of the RSP-501EX   will differ depending on your speaker system and the amplifier used with it.
