Description

R5 Signature

The Ruark Audio R5 Signature builds on more than three decades of high-end expertise and craftsmanship pedigree while embodying the company’s vision of the future. Since its launch, R5 has been widely commended as one of the finest all-in-one systems available, and so for Summer 2021, Ruark are introducing a special Signature Edition with a limited production run to match its exclusivity.

Ruark Audio constantly seek refinement, and with R5 Signature they have made subtle but incremental changes to make an excellent product even better.

Most obvious is the piano lacquer finish, with machined alloy rose gold detailing, delivering an extremely premium look. Creating a true piano finish is a painstaking task that involves building the finish in multiple layers with hand sanding between coats. Once the final coat is applied, the lacquer is wet sanded with a very fine grit abrasive and then hand buffed and polished to a glass-like finish.

Conventional methods of finishing do not compare with the lustre level that this process provides, and neither are they as long-lasting nor hard-wearing. In terms of sound, the multiple layers of lacquer also add rigidity to the enclosure, resulting in extra clarity.

The standard R5 produces an impressive stereo soundstage that extends way beyond its compact dimensions, and is a feature that listeners love. This was achieved via proprietary algorithm and digital filtering, but now with further tuning the function has been enhanced, creating a cleaner soundstage with greater depth and realism.

The end result is the STEREO+ feature. Internally R5 Signature uses the same high fidelity Class A-B amplifier system and our own neodymium NS+ drivers, but with revised routing of key signal paths and the use of high purity oxygen-free speaker cables for extra sound clarity.
