British sound brand Ruark Audio is bringing its trademark luxury sound systems to Singapore for discerning music lovers who appreciate the charm of its warm, full-bodied sound systems – which sound as good as they look.
Synergising Audio and Design
Ruark’s claim to fame is its careful balance of the synergy between cabinet, amplifier and drive unit design. Its four music systems feature refined Ruark Audio sound drivers with Class A-B amplifiers, laid out in a sleek enclosure that is dampened and tuned to provide ideal conditions for them. As a result, the R7, R5, MR1 and MRx can all closely reproduce songs the way they were recorded, creating a natural and lifelike soundstage.
The R7 Redefines the Radiogram
Before the advent of hi-fi systems in the 1970s, the radiogram – a radio and record player combined into one – was the desired music system of choice. It was often made of polished wood to match the furniture of its time. The R7 carries on the radiogram’s legacy of providing a wide variety of connectivity options, while also doubling up as a beautiful piece of modern furniture for the home.
Powered by two Ruark Audio dual concentric drivers and a well-integrated class A-B amplifier, the versatile R7 makes the listening experience more realistic and enjoyable. This adaptable system provides access to a vast range of music choices from radio stations to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi streaming. True to its radiogram spirit, it also contains a slot-loading CD player for CD enthusiasts. The R7 can be easily operated with Ruark’s trademark Rotodial remote, which does not need to be aimed at the system to control it.
The R7 was designed to be a timeless statement piece in a room, with its exquisite hand-crafted wood cabinet, contemporary acoustic fabric and clear glass front panel.
