MR1 Bluetooth Speaker System

We’ve a lot of love here for Ruark Audio radios – and it seems their speaker systems are just as wonderful as shown by the MR1 speaker system.

Just in case you haven’t twigged we’re smitten with the MR1. Even its price tag seems eminently sensible when you’re rewarded with sound quality as good as this.

Ruark’s MR1 speaker system is among the best yet. Cased in walnut and straddling the delicate line between ‘retro’ and ‘downright boring’, it looks like a mini hi-fi system minus the ‘system’ part - but in case you’re in any doubt, this is ‘serious’ hi-fi.

I’m a Classical Musician with a musician’s ear not an engineer’s. To me these speakers are delightful and certainly sound alive.

The only speaker in this group we could listen to for extended periods is the Ruark Audio MR1. This classic-looking two-way speaker has refinement and class writ large across its smooth, wholesome sound. It won’t play at party volumes, but in its comfort zone it can remind you what small-scale realistic music is all about.

This is one set of versatile speakers you need in your life.

The step up in performance in impressive, and the Ruark MR1 Mk2s manage to be even more appealing than before. Quite simply, these are superb speakers of their type.

Ruark’s second gen Bluetooth bookshelf speakers look stunning and have the audio performance to match, belying their miniature size.

I needed powered speakers that were small enough to fit into a limited space and the MR1s came highly recommended with not a single bad review. The sound and power is more than enough to fill a room.

This pair of small, sleekly designed speakers sound brilliant and look like something that may pop out of a control board on Buck Rogers. They win in a game of chicken with Q’s eardrums and the riff-heavy bite of Arctic Monkeys ‘Do I Wanna Know?’ has a roar when channelled through them… Quite stunning.

This is such an awesome sounding piece of kit and deserves to be at the heart of an audio visual set up. Thank you for my many hours of exquisite listening. Always had the most amazing service and support. Reputation is everything. Please maintain your high standards.

The upgrades that Ruark has made to an already impressive Bluetooth speaker system have brought it damn near to perfection. Very classy indeed.

I am delighted with the speakers, which are just wonderful. The build quality, beautiful retro look, and, especially, crystalline and natural sound, of your speakers are tremendous. And finally, the depth and naturalness of the bass, from such comparatively tiny enclosures, are just incredible.

Most Bluetooth speakers don’t offer a true stereo speaker setup but if that’s what you’re after then Ruark is on hand. The MR1 speakers will go nicely with a PC, laptop or just as a pair of bookshelf speakers to use with a phone or tablet.

I would also like to say how beautifully packaged the speakers were. Only had them a day but the sound exceeding my expectations. You should be congratulated in crafting such a high quality product … Well done.

This is my second Ruark product. You manage to get both form and function right every time!

I was sceptical about buying a Bluetooth system, but these little boxes have just blown me away. Sound quality is amazing for such a small unit. Perfect little space speakers and having previously owned some serious HiFi kit, these are up there with the best.

Let me tell you that I kept listening for two hours, in amazement! The sound quality emanating from such small speakers, is barely believable… Not only can you hear clearly treble and mids, but the bass extension is astonishing for such a small diameter of speaker
