Perfectly proportioned & stylishHaving very little knowledge of what would constitute a good speaker I took a VERY long time researching and reading reviews. We were looking to purchase a good quality pair of bookshelf speakers and while the audio quality was our priority, they also had to look good and be able to fit in with our interiors.
The MR1 Mk2 speakers (in chestnut) are very stylish, a great size for bookshelves, and most importantly, we've been blown away by the quality of the sound. We've also used them on a few occasions to watch movies and been similarly impressed. The bluetooth connectivity has been effortless and the variety of inputs is a bonus!
All in all we're extremely pleased with our purchase.

XS speakers!!!I would like to summarize this product as the XS speakers:
XS: as extra small
XS: as extra strong
XS: as extra sound
XS: as extra simple
I bought it for Christmas as a second audio system for my house in Dubai.
I have been impressed for their sound which is well detailed, very dynamic and covering adequately the full frequency extension.
Despite it represents a modern perfect system for an entry level hi-fi system my suggestions for improvements are:
1. having the front grid removable is a must. (I was a bit upset that the MK2 does not provided this option).
2. introduce a way to visualize the speaker's built in amplifier gain.
3. a slightly bigger and thicker rubber feet would have created a better separation from the below surface
4. provide mini floor standing/supports as an option
5. external wood finishing can be slightly easily improved to immediately gain an "hi-end" feeling

Great looks, great sound, good priceI wanted a new set of desktop speakers after my existing bluetooth speaker started to play up. I'm not really an audiophile but I was looking for good quality sound at a decent price. I also wanted stereo speakers, which I always had in the past but single bluetooth speakers have rather taken over the casual listening market.
Reading independent reviews I came across these Ruark Audio speakers. I immediately liked the look of the walnut finish, the price and the quality of the sound when I heard them on test. The fact that I was buying from an independent UK manufacturer was also a bonus, especially as Ruark are a local business to my area. All in all, I am delighted with these speakers. They look and sound great and have added real depth to the audio I listen to every day.

Amazing speakers!After reading great reviews about these speakers I decided to take the plunge and buy them without listening (though I do have an older pair of Ruark stand speakers that have been my favourite hi-fi speakers ever). I was not disappointed! For such a small speaker they have amazing clarity and good accurate bass. I was not expecting high end hi-fi standard, but after getting them set up and working I was so amazed I began to critically judge them as such. OK, they can't compare to a full (much more expensive) system, but for convenient and portable 'around the house' listening they really do justice to almost any music.
A word of warning though .......being such good quality, they are sensitive to the source material. Feed them low quality and you'll be disappointed with the output. I started by feeding them i-tunes via bluetooth and what I got was better than the average bluetooth speaker, but it was a compressed sound lacking in detail. I then hooked up my Arcam CD player using a Chord C-Jack cable. The result was amazing! Feed them good quality input and you'll get a rich and detailed output. I'm now using them to play vinyl via a Technics SL1210 Mk2 and Rega phono stage - again the results are amazing. So for something I just intended to be a desktop speaker for music while I work, I'm now using them as a mini hi-fi in my conservatory.
In my view, Ruark have lost nothing of the quality that made them outstanding with floorstanders and stand speakers in the past - all in a relatively tiny and affordable package.
Highly recommended!

Sounds good, looks good !Excellent speakers. I'm a photographer and film maker, sound quality is really important to me. I have to say that this system is impressive. The sound is detailed and clear. The speakers are tiny, but they sound so much bigger than they actually are.
Definitely worthy of recommendation.
