A Legacy of Excellence
It has been fourteen years since Ruark introduced the first-generation R1, an iconic model that redefined table radios. Now, the Ruark R1 Mk4 marks the fourth generation of this celebrated design. Staying true to its roots, the Mk4 continues to showcase Ruark's commitment to quality and innovation, ensuring its place as a leader in premium audio products.
Design Evolution
The R1 Mk4 retains the timeless beauty of its predecessors but introduces a modern twist to appeal to today's design-conscious customers. Transitioning from the labour-intensive wooden housings of earlier models, Ruark has adopted an efficient injection moulding process. This allows for subtle shaping and the addition of contemporary finishes like light cream and espresso lacquer. The polymer housing, reinforced with a special acoustic coating, ensures optimal sound performance. The handcrafted wooden front grille enhances the visual appeal, creating a product that remains unmistakably Ruark while embracing contemporary design sensibilities.
Advanced Features
With the R1 Mk4, Ruark sets a new benchmark for sound quality and functionality. Its powerful amplifier, paired with the in-house developed NS+ loudspeaker unit and adaptive equalisation, delivers rich, balanced audio at any volume. The high-contrast OLED display provides clear information on time, alarms, and programmes, with automatic ambient light adjustment for versatility. Equipped with exceptional reception for digital and analogue radio, the R1 Mk4 also includes a premium Bluetooth receiver, a USB playback and charging port compatible with formats like FLAC and WAV, and a line-in input for other devices. Ruark’s signature RotoDial controller ensures intuitive operation, while optional accessories like a compact remote control and battery pack enable portable use.
Designed to Impress
The Ruark R1 Mk4 combines sophisticated aesthetics with exceptional audio quality, making it a standout choice for both design enthusiasts and music lovers. Whether placed in a living room or a bedroom, its stylish appearance and versatile features offer an unparalleled user experience.
