Product Summary
The Ruark Sabre-R is a premium bookshelf speaker designed for customers who want genuine stereo hi-fi sound in a speaker that is compact, stylish and easy to place. Inspired by Ruark’s original Sabre loudspeaker, it combines classic proportions with modern drive unit design and careful cabinet tuning to create a speaker that feels equally at home on stands, shelves or furniture.
Although relatively compact, the Sabre-R is built to deliver a sound that feels open, expressive and engaging. Its 28 mm silk dome tweeter, 130 mm Ruark NS+ bass-mid driver and tuned bass reflex cabinet help it produce a presentation with impressive clarity, scale and musical energy for its size.
The Sabre-R is also a very flexible choice for modern hi-fi systems. With a friendly 6 ohm nominal impedance, 86 dB sensitivity and the ability to partner amplifiers from 25 to 100 watts, it works well with a wide range of quality stereo amplifiers and music systems. It is an excellent option for customers who want a beautifully made compact speaker with a strong balance of style, musicality and real-world practicality.
These are ex-demonstration speakers in the Walnut finish that have been very well cared for. They come with original boxing and accessories.
