Room filling sound
It sits in the corner of the kitchen, an upgrade to my previous Mk3, with a small footprint, that's where I have the opportunity to listen whilst mellowing. The Bluetooth experience is much improved over the years too. I like the pastel green colour, but it's the sound quality that really shines..

Superb!!
What a beauty! The sound is quite incredible, fills the whole room. No problem tuning in what stations I listen to. The looks are lovely as well, fits right in to our decor

What I expected
Bought R2 mk4. Very good sound, very pleased. Apple Music support would be the only improvement but I knew that wasn't supported when I purchased. đź‘Ť

Fabulous sound and build quality
I bought a graded product from the Ruark shop very recently and wanted to note here the pure quality of product both from delivery point to set up and lush sound. Don’t be put off buying a graded product- I have yet to find any flaws in my expresso R2 and it’s mint, I knew Ruark were good having owned the R1 mark 3 and using it daily for many years in our kitchen- that is a wonderful product and all of the same and more is true of the latest R2. We have a fairly large living space of approx 16 x 16 with high ceilings and this thing fills the space with wonderfully wide and warm sound. It has that unmistakeable Ruark sound signature but where it Excels over the already great R1 is in the soundstage it projects with great dynamics and instrument separation - surprising given the size and closeness of its 2 NS+ drivers - hugely impressive! Being a bit of a hifi nerd and loving my separates and Dali floor standing speakers system I can honestly say this little gem punches way above its weight and is true high fidelity - a great second system if you already have a main set up but brill on its own if you didn’t want to bother with all those wires and boxes! I’d recommend having bass at +4, treble at +6 amd with 3D processor on but the loudness feature off for music listening and on again for talk radio stations or for lower volume level listening. Only gripe is the Oktiv app can be a little sticky at times and Amazon music loading a bit hit n miss bit that maybe the integration on Amazon’s side. As a Tidal user do Ruark have any plans to integrate Tidal into a software upgrade for the R2 at sone point? That would make it even more impressive but regardless it’s a tremendous product and am a happy customer.

Rurak R2 Mk4
I’m very happy with my purchase, has lots of stations to choose from, great sound it’s easy to adjust the bass and treble to your preference, I would recommend this product, I downloaded the UNDOK app so I can choose which station to listen to from my phone 👍

Great radio, streaming and sound
Purchased this to replace a Bose system that stopped receiving mainstream BBC radio. Although this is bigger, it performs brilliantly and is a great replacement. Bought this size for the sound benefit in a large kitchen and it doesn't disappoint. It it's perched on a high up shelf, advise buying the remote to switch operations.

Brilliant radio - nothing better at this price

Lovely sound and aesthetic
I've been enjoying my new Ruark radio for around 6 weeks now. I am not an audiophile but for me the sound is really impressive from a relatively small unit. The stereo is impressive. I purchased the remote control which is convenient, but I have found the Oktiv app works fine. I mostly use the direct Spotify connect which again works seamlessly. I think the classic design of the unit with the simple lines and wooden fascia is perfect and it blends well with most styles of furniture. All in all It's been a good purchase.

Great sound and build, for a price
Very happy with this radio/all in one device. Sounds lovely, easy to use, looks great! The only downsides are a lack of app or remote, and you pay a premium, but we have no regrets and thoroughly recommend!

Hello There,
