R2 Smart Music System


The journey of the R2 series began in 2007 with the launch of its first generation, setting a new standard for tabletop audio systems. Over the years, Ruark Audio has continuously refined and evolved the R2, introducing the Mk2 in 2010 and the Mk3 in 2015, each iteration incorporating advancements in technology and user-centric features.
Now, after nearly a decade since the release of the R2 Mk3, Ruark Audio proudly unveils the R2 Mk4. This latest evolution is a testament to the company’s commitment to excellence, offering enhanced performance, modern connectivity, and a design that reimagines elegance. The R2 Mk4 is more than a music system; it’s a work of art, engineered to complement contemporary lifestyles while delivering an unparalleled listening experience.

“The R2 Mk4 sounds brilliant and is a pleasure to use. It’s the kind of radio and streaming system that encourages you to explore all the music, podcasts and radio out there – and it’ll make your favourite bands and artists sound amazing.”
“The Ruark is just so easy to use, so easy to get playing with a single tap of the power button, that we reckon it must have quadrupled the amount of music we played in that space during its time. And that’s a recommendation in itself.”
“If you’re after a high-quality music system that looks great, is lovely to use and sounds wonderful, the Ruark R2 Mk4 should be at the top of your wishlist. It’s the kind of product that could – and should – be considered alongside any budget
“The new R2 Music System is a typically splendid offering, with a retro-yet-modern look which will fit into most homes and even smarten them up somewhat.”

A Slim, Elegant Profile
R2 Mk4 brings one of our longest-established models right up to date, while retaining key elements that made our original R2 a popular choice, upon its launch in 2007. The most obvious change from its predecessors is its slimmer footprint. These elegant proportions allow R2 to be placed easily around the home and make it perfect for a windowsill or bookcase.
The appearance of R2 is simple yet stunning. The enclosure, with precise lines and soft contours, combines with the hand crafted slatted wood grille to create a timeless retro-modern feel. Along with its bonded TFT on glass display and our trademark RotoDial controller, R2 is undoubtedly a Ruark design and the quality remains clear.
