Ruark RS1 Subwoofer – Rich Walnut Black with Slate Grey Fabric Grille

Overview

The Ruark RS1 Subwoofer is designed to bring musical depth and refinement to your listening experience. Finished in Rich Walnut Black with a Slate Grey fabric grille, it combines premium craftsmanship with expressive sound, making it as elegant as it is powerful. Compact yet capable, the RS1 enhances smaller speakers with room-filling bass that stays clean, fast, and musical—perfect for those who value both performance and style.

Powerful Yet Musical Bass

At the heart of the RS1 lies a 100W Class D amplifier paired with a 170mm long-throw active driver and 170mm passive radiator. This configuration delivers tight, controlled bass from 25Hz to 200Hz, adding weight and rhythm without muddying the sound. Unlike subwoofers that overpower, the RS1 is carefully tuned to integrate seamlessly, enhancing everything from delicate acoustic tracks to bass-heavy electronic music.

Designed for Integration

Originally created to complement Ruark’s award-winning MR1 Bluetooth speakers, the RS1 also pairs beautifully with the R3S, R410, or any hi-fi system with a subwoofer or pre-out connection. With its adjustable crossover (50–180Hz), phase control, and auto power-on function, it adapts effortlessly to your setup for optimum performance in any room.

Premium Design

Blending function with form, the RS1 features hand-finished lacquer panels and a furniture-friendly compact cabinet. At just 30cm tall, it fits neatly into modern living spaces, offering subtle sophistication that enhances your décor while delivering serious bass performance.
