Ruark Audio R1 Deluxe
Bluetooth radio
Ideal for the kitchen, perfect for the office, and simply pleasant to wake up to in the bedroom. The new R1 brings style to any room, and with its built-in high-quality Bluetooth receiver, you can wirelessly stream music from your phone or computer.
Each generation of R1 has been an evolution of the original, but with the R1 Mk4, we wanted it to be more advanced in both design and performance.
The use of a precise molding process has allowed us to carefully profile the enclosure, giving it a new look and a perfect finish for our new Light Cream and Espresso coatings. With acoustic treatment, the enclosure is sturdy and acoustically inert, providing an ideal housing for the electronics and the NS+ driver.
The design is further enhanced by a beautiful handcrafted grille. This adds a touch of sophistication and creates a timeless Eames feel, but overall, the design remains unique and distinctly Ruark.
Our previous R1 models received critical acclaim for their sound, but with the R1 Mk4, we've raised the bar! In particular, the latest neodymium NS+ driver, used in our R3 and R5 models, provides a smooth and extended frequency response. In the R1 Mk4, the tuned enclosure produces impressive bass reproduction. The system's Class A/B linear amplifier delivers exceptional dynamics, and with adaptive equalization, clearly audible sound is achieved at all volume levels.
BackPack II
With battery status display and improved power management, the R1 Mk4 works even better and longer with the optional BackPack II, meaning you can enjoy the rich sound of the R1 when mains power is unavailable.
BackPack II seamlessly attaches to the R1, and once installed, it can be left in place permanently as it recharges automatically whenever mains power is reconnected. A full charge provides up to 12 hours of network listening depending on the volume.
Compact remote control
For the first time, we have an optional compact remote control available for the R1. The remote control features four direct access buttons, allowing you to easily save and select your favorite radio stations.
