Product Summary
The Ruark R1S is a premium smart radio designed for customers who want far more than a basic bedside or kitchen radio. Beautifully made and compact enough to fit neatly on shelves, side tables and worktops, it combines timeless styling with modern streaming, internet radio and Bluetooth in one elegant unit.
Despite its small size, the R1S is built to deliver a rich, clear and surprisingly confident sound. Ruark’s tuned cabinet, quality full-range driver and Class A/B amplification help give music, speech radio and podcasts a fuller, more refined presentation than many compact radios can manage.
The R1S is also especially easy to live with day to day. Alongside DAB, FM and internet radio, it supports streaming services, Bluetooth playback and app control, making it a flexible choice for bedrooms, kitchens, offices and smaller living spaces. It is an excellent option for customers who want a stylish compact radio that feels modern, sounds genuinely enjoyable and fits naturally into the home.
This is an ex-demo model that has been very well cared for. It comes supplied with original boxing and accessories.
