Ruark Audio R1 MKIV Deluxe Bluetooth Radio

Ruark Audio R1 MKIII Tischradio

Beautifully simple, R1 is the third generation of our iconic table radio. Ideal in the kitchen, perfect in the office and simply delightful to wake up to in the bedroom, if you love listening to the radio then you’ll find our R1 a revelation.

Featuring a DAB, DAB+ and FM Tuner, Bluetooth Receiver, Switchable Line Input, Stereo Headphone Output, USB Power Port, 20 Station Pre-sets, High Contrast OLED Display and Comprehensive Dual Alarms combined with a punchy Class A-B amplifier and high-fidelity speaker make R1 we believe, the best and most complete table-top radio available.

Clearly brilliant
Programme, time and alarm information are shown with vivid clarity on the latest technology OLED display. Clean and stylish, our displays retain their readability at any viewing angle and the brightness can be adjusted to suit your needs, both when active and also in standby.

Beautifully intuitive
One of our first projects when establishing Ruark Audio was to design an easy to use control system. The result is our trademark RotoDial controller. With the introduction of R1 Mk3 we made our RotoDial controller even better and now whether you own R1, R2, R4 or even R7 you will intuitively know how to use each due to the similarity of their operation.

Best Radio Performance
Radio performance on DAB and FM is first class and with DAB+ technology also built in, R1 can be used in countries such as Australia, Denmark, France, Germany and Norway where this updated system is now being used. DAB+ also ensures that R1 is future-ready for the implementation of this digital radio technology in the UK.

Wireless Bluetooth Connectivity
With a quality Bluetooth receiver built in, you can wirelessly stream your music, internet radio and other services such as Spotify from your smartphone or computer direct to R1. R1 also remembers up to seven previous Bluetooth connections and allows users to conveniently switch between them. Most importantly sound quality over Bluetooth with R1 you will find sublime.

Bedside Companion
R1 makes a glorious bedside clock radio and with comprehensive dual alarms you’ll be woken from your slumbers with beautiful natural sound exactly when you want. R1 also has adjustable sleep and snooze timers so you can doze off and snooze with its soothing sound.

High Fidelity Radio
R1 is regarded as one of the best sounding radios you can buy, but that’s because we understand the importance of enclosure and drive unit design to create great sound. In every way R1 has been developed like a high fidelity speaker crafted from materials chosen for their excellent acoustic properties and our custom full range drive unit designed for superb dynamics and a smooth natural frequency response.

Hand-Crafted Perfection
R1 is crafted from quality materials which we know from our years spent designing High-Fidelity loudspeakers, provide the best sound, but aesthetically the combination of natural hand finished wood and precise cool man-made materials have the added benefit of making our products feel as good to touch as they are to see and hear.

Connect and Charge
On the rear of R1 we’ve provided a headphone output and a switchable input so other audio devices can be connected and enjoyed with R1’s sonorous sound. R1 also features a USB charge port designed to charge Smartphones and other similar devices. This is particularly useful when using R1 as a bedside radio, so your phone is charged and ready for when you wake.
