Description

Limited edition created in collaboration with Nordoff and Robbins – the UK’s largest music therapy charity.

Ideal for the kitchen, perfect in the office and simply delightful to wake up to in the bedroom, our new R1 brings style to any room and with a quality Bluetooth receiver built in you can wirelessly stream to R1 from your phone or computer.

Most importantly, if you love music then we are confident that you’ll find R1 Mk4 a revelation.

Class leading sound with adaptive EQDAB, DAB+ and FM tuner

High quality Bluetooth receiver

High contrast OLED display with auto dimming Intuitive Rotodial control system

Easy-to-use comprehensive dual alarms

With acoustic treatment the enclosure is sturdy and acoustically inert, providing the ideal housing for our electronics and NS+ driver.

Enhancing the design further is a beautiful hand-crafted slatted wood grille.

This brings added sophistication and creates a timeless Eames like vibe, but overall, the design is still unique and distinctly Ruark.

In particular our latest neodymium NS+ driver, as used in our R3 and R5 models, provides a smooth and extended frequency response and in R1 Mk4’s tuned enclosure delivers an impressive bass performance.

Driving the system is a punchy Class A/B linear amplifier for exceptional dynamics and with adaptive equalisation an eminently listenable sound is provided at all volume levels.

Radio reception is excellent, and a Bluetooth receiver allows you to enjoy R1’s great sound when streaming from your phone or computer

Other features include a USB-C charge/shuffle playback port, headphone output, switchable line input and of course our trademark RotoDial control system.

Finally, for those seeking distant operation, we have an optional compact remote control available.
