Love this company!
We have owned several Ruark products over the years, starting back when they were Vita Audio. They are fantastic, the sound is amazing, build quality excellent and they look great! We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Ruark R2 MK4
I bought a Ruark radio and, honestly, I'm surprised by the build quality and rich sound it delivers. The most impressive feature is the polymer casing with a hand-crafted wooden grille, which looks exceptional. Above the grille on the front is a glass panel, behind which is an OLED display. The speakers are equipped with robust neodymium magnets, and the transducers are powered by a class AB amplifier, a rather unusual solution in this product category and price range. The device's 18W output is quite capable, and the 3D sound processor provides a spacious sound. Bass and treble adjustments, activating the 3D sound processor, and volume control allow users to customize these settings to their individual needs. I didn't think a radio like this could play like this. It's not cheap, but it's worth the purchase. The sound is spacious, dominated by mid-tones that pulsate with the richness of the sounds coming from the device. Listening to internet stations and the film music I've preset provides an extraordinary musical experience. The device plays beautifully, making you want to listen again and again. My wife doesn't want to go to work, and I'm not surprised. I'm satisfied with the purchase of this device.

Great radio/sound system
I was gifted this speaker by my husband for Christmas. He is very fussy when it comes to speakers as he has worked in audio production. This speaker is great and just what I wanted. It has DAB for my favourite BBC stations and internet radio from which you can pick from radio stations around the world. You can stream your Apple Music to it and it also has Amazon music and Spotify amongst other music streaming services. I have the Green model and it looks great in our kitchen.

Good design
The design, materials and colors perfectly go with my cabinet. That's the main reason why I was attracted by it first. However, after using it, this device (including its App, Oktiv) is easy to use and navigate through all the functions and menu as well. The only problem I had was to figure out how to preset the radio chanels.

Claim nois at low volume
I am very happy with optic and sound at higher volume. I am very unhappy with white noisse, hissing) at low volume on both speakers but more on one of the too speakers. It happens also on Digital radio ore spotify . No problem of antena !! For that reason I would most probably not buy again. Can you help best regards Klaus

Ruark R2 Prize
As you can see I was fortunate enough to win my radio. It's a tremendous piece of kit. I recommend the addition of a remote control which has made it so much easier to use I have particularly enjoyed listening to Classic FM and Sport. My friends are very envious of my radio.

Good Looks and Sound, Annoying TFT Display
The TFT Display is clear but very small. The rolling information about radio shows and/or music composers and titles jumps back to the beginning before reaching the end of the information. This is very annoying, particularly in relation to classical music. I hope this can be rectified by a software update?

Great Design, great Sound
Great Bass Sound and cool Color (Sea Mist Mint). Also like the Display and the many different possibilities to use it, FM, DAB, Bluetooth

Exceptional radio and service
I eventually plumped for the Ruark R2 after purchasing and returning a Roberts radio due to its poor performance. The Ruark has not disappointed, a great radio and good price for a so call graded product. I certainly could not see any difference from new. Thanks from a very satisfied customer. Might even get one fir the bedroom. One slight niggle, would be nice to include a remote, which I bought subsequently.
