Ruark Audio Radio R1 MK4 Espresso

RUARK's new R1 is ideal for the kitchen, perfect in the office and just wonderful to wake up to in the bedroom. It brings style to any room and with a built-in Bluetooth receiver, you can stream wirelessly from your phone or computer to R1. Above all, if you love music you will find the R1 Mk4 a revelation. MODERN, TIMELESS DESIGN The evolution in design as well as performance is a testament to the advanced redesign of the original. The acoustic treatment makes the cabinet robust and acoustically inert, providing the ideal enclosure for our electronics and NS + driver. A beautifully handcrafted wooden slatted frame will further enhance the design. This brings added sophistication and creates a timeless Eames-like feel, but overall the design is still unique and distinctly Ruark. NEW SOUND STANDARD In particular, the latest neodymium NS + driver, as used in RURAK's R3 and R5 models, provides a smooth and extended frequency response and, in the R1 Mk4's tuned cabinet, impressive bass performance. The system is driven by a punchy Class A / B linear amplifier for exceptional dynamics. With adaptive equalization, superb audible sound is achieved at all volume levels.
