The Ruark RS1 Subwoofer, second in the 100 Series to launch, was born out of demand for a companion to the award-winning MR1 Bluetooth speakers. A 100W Class D amplifier offers a deep, controlled bass that adds a tangible dimension to your listening experience. Enhancing the low-end sounds, the subwoofer features a 170mm long-throw active driver, 170mm passive radiator, and an adjustable crossover of 50-180Hz to deliver a natural, extended bass that will elevate your favourite music. There is even a 180-degree phase switch so you can create a cohesive sound to match the performance of your speakers.
Ruark’s RS1 stands apart in the world of subwoofers with its unique design and exceptional technical specifications. Going beyond the common black boxes often associated with subwoofers, the RS1 features a tailored grey grille and hand-crafted walnut or grey panels. These design elements give it the typical contemporary and stylish appearance we are used to seeing from Ruark and will fit perfectly with any other Ruark products you already have.
At the heart of any Ruark design is the enjoyment of music, and the Ruark RS1 Subwoofer similarly embodies this ethos. It prioritises deep, controlled, and most importantly, musical sound over thunderous, overblown bass. The enclosure and custom drivers have been optimised and tuned to deliver natural extended bass that is fast and rhythmic. Powering this system is a robust 100-watt Class D amplifier that maintains firm control of the bass driver at all volume levels, ensuring consistent sound quality.
The Ruark RS1 Subwoofer fills a gap that smaller speakers simply can’t, contributing to a more satisfying and realistic audio experience. Whether paired with Ruark’s MR1 or R3S models or any other system in need of a stylish and sonically impressive subwoofer, the RS1 brings the joy of bass to every note and song. Its ability to automatically turn itself on and off as required makes setup and adjustment straightforward, allowing you to focus on enjoying the enhanced audio experience it delivers.
Based on the South East Coast of England, Ruark Audio are a family-owned company with an amazing passionate team.
Ruark Audio was formed in 1985 by Alan O’Rourke and his father. In the beginning they made loudspeaker systems for audio enthusiasts, but since 2006 they’ve applied their
skills to create radios and music systems with wide ranging appeal that look and sound fabulous in any space.
Ruark have three key objectives…
Ruark’s aim is to create design icons of the future! Clean lines and proportions allied to special features such as our RotoDial control system make their products unique and instantly recognisable.
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.
Whether you’re looking for beautiful design or perfect sound, Ruark believe you’ll be impressed by what they have to offer. They also pride themselves on their customer service, so should you have a question or need assistance, they will always do their utmost to help.
