Product Summary

The Ruark Talisman-R is a fourth-generation floorstanding loudspeaker created to celebrate Ruark’s 40 years of music and design. Inspired by the original Talisman from 1990, it combines the distinctive slim profile and sloped baffle with modern driver technology, refined cabinet engineering and finishes designed to complement Ruark’s 100 Series aesthetic.

Key Benefits

Two-way bass-reflex design delivers a natural, room-filling sound from an elegant floorstanding cabinet
27mm silk-dome tweeter and 165mm long-throw NS+ woofer provide smooth detail, scale and musical balance
Decoupled baffle helps reduce vibration transfer from the drivers into the cabinet for a cleaner sound
Dual-flared port and carefully tuned enclosure support deeper, more controlled bass performance
Premium crossover components help improve signal transfer and reduce distortion between the drive units
Internal bracing and compound wadding help control cabinet resonance and standing waves
10mm machined steel plinth adds stability while giving the speaker a distinctive floating appearance
Removable magnetic grilles allow a clean look with or without the grille fitted
2 years manufacturer's parts and labour guarantee, with a free third year when registered within 28 days of purchase

Our Trustpilot reviews

★★★★★
What an amazing company. Anna in the Glasgow branch has been so informative and helpful with my order. Sam in the Aberdeen branch has an incredible knowledge of older amps and speakers.
Alan

★★★★★
I bought a full system from the Aberdeen shop. Christian was very attentive throughout the whole process. I found that all the staff in the shop were both knowledgeable and helpful. I would strongly recommend Holburn Hi-Fi to anyone thinking about buying a full or part Hi-Fi system.
Peter

★★★★★
Jesse is very professional and always happy to help in the Glasgow Audio store. He is very knowledgeable about the products. Highly recommend.
Kyle

★★★★★
The guys at Holburn Hifi were fantastic from start to finish. Explained everything clearly and in simple terms which I really appreciated as I was lost amongst all the info I had seen online. There was no hard sell and certainly an understanding of my budget. I can’t recommend Holburn Hi Fi highly enough. Thanks to Ian, Sam and Christian.

★★★★★
Dropped in not really knowing what I wanted. Sam was most helpful, steering me towards a solution, and avoiding going over the top. From that we moved on to updating our wifi coverage towards a network. Here, Alain was equally helpful.
