skills to create radios and music systems with wide ranging appeal that look and sound fabulous in any space.

Ruark’s goal is for class-leading performance, intuitive operation and functions that are really beneficial, rather than frivolous features that may seldom be used.
Since launch, their models have become regarded as the finest available, gaining critical acclaim, including the Sunday Telegraph memorably describing Ruark’s first generation R1 as ‘the Aston Martin of DAB radios’. This statement concisely describes their company ethos.
