Discover the Ruark Audio R610 Music Streamer – Expert Review by What Hi-Fi

R610 Music Console delivers aesthetic appeal seldom seen among hi-fi components and this same devotion to detail is matched within. Powering R610 is a modern switch mode power supply, providing optimised powerlines to the system’s motherboard and latest generation digital amplifiers. With Burr-Brown DACs and audio grade components used throughout and a nominal output of 75 watts per channel, R610 is controlled and dynamic – but most importantly, it delivers a delightfully natural sound that makes music thoroughly enjoyable.

The RotoDial controller has been a distinctive part of Ruark products since 2006. For 100 Series Ruark have refined its design further and with tactile soft touch buttons and a precisely weighted control dial, it makes operating R610 a delight. Enhancing the operating experience is the crisp 5" TFT display which confirms every command, as well as showing album and station artwork in perfect clarity. Also included is a matching rechargeable remote. Bluetooth connectivity means that aiming is not required, so you can relax and fully control R610 from afar.

The R610 streaming amplifier provides all the connectivity you are ever likely to need, and with a powerful processor it is capable of handling the highest quality audio streams. With Internet Radio, Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, Apple AirPlay and Google Cast all built in, a vast selection of music awaits to be discovered.

R610 also makes it easy to rediscover treasured physical music formats. A quality phono stage makes it simple to connect a turntable, while for CD playback we will soon be unveiling our own Compact Disc Player called R-CD100. This will integrate and connect with R610 and our other 100 Series models via the USB socket on the rear. Last but not least, R610’s HDMI ARC/eARC connection provides a great sound solution for those seeking a system that also elevates TV and film enjoyment to a new level.

First introduced in 1985, Ruark are proud to announce the return of one of our original iconic loudspeaker names. Uniting sonic excellence with elegant aesthetics, the R610 Music Console and Sabre-R bookshelf speakers partner perfectly to create a complete music system for the modern era and embody Ruark’s ethos of making products with soul that customers will cherish and enjoy for years to come.
