Ruark Audio continues to redefine the radiogram with its updated R7

“The natural character of R7 is still retained, but the imagery and soundstage has been improved, making the listening experience more realistic and enjoyable…”

Introduced in 2013, Ruark Audio’s original R7 quickly became a highly coveted design that established Ruark Audio as the leader in the art of creating beautiful sound systems. With eye-catching styling and amazing audio quality, R7 is a revolutionary music centre in the true spirit of the classic radiogram, designed to reignite people’s passion for music and radio.

For 2016, Ruark Audio has further enhanced R7, bringing greater control and clarity to the sound while improving usability.The significant audio enhancements have been achieved through improvements to the linear amplifiers along with changes to the crossovers. The result is better integration of the co-axial stereo units giving a smoother and more extended frequency response. The natural character of R7 is still retained, but the imagery and soundstage

With Digital, Analogue and Internet tuners, R7 provides access to a vast choice of radio stations and for music collectors, the slick slot-loading CD player will have customers rediscovering their CD collection. Despite its traditional charm, the technology within R7 could not be more cutting edge. With a high-quality aptX Bluetooth receiver and DLNA Wi-Fi music can be wirelessly streamed to R7 from many compatible Bluetooth and Wi-Fi enabled devices such as smartphones, laptops and network storage devices.

Aside from its built-in sources, R7 also features both digital and analogue inputs allowing a wide variety of auxiliary devices to be connected including TVs and record players or media players such Google Chromecast Audio or Apple’s Airport Express.

This adaptability means R7 can easily become the centrepiece for customers entertainment needs.

Complementing the audio improvements, Ruark Audio continues its pursuit of quality and ergonomic excellence. From the outset R7 was designed as a statement piece, a focal point in the room to be admired and desired. The exquisite hand-crafted cabinet along with the precision engineered aluminium and glass front panel conjure up timeless longevity and Ruark’s trademark Rotodial remote make operating R7 a simple and pleasurable task. Using the latest radio technology, the R7’s superior RotoDial remote does not need to be aimed during operation and so can control R7 whilst sited on a table or even from an adjoining room.

“R7 is unique in a world awash with ‘me too’ products. Whether you love music or you love design, R7 is a system that defies expectation and like radiograms of old we believe it is a product that customers will value and enjoy for many years to come.”
