About the Ruark Sabre-R Bookshelf Speakers

Product Description

Crafted to Captivate

With many customers still enjoying our original Sabre loudspeakers, launched in 1985, the Sabre-Rs have likewise been designed to last and enthral a new generations of music lovers.

A celebration of Ruark’s heritage, Sabre-Rs have been exquisitely crafted and refined with the understanding of how materials and components combine to deliver musicality that you will enjoy endlessly.

Crafted with over 40 years of audio heritage
For stand-mount or bookshelf use
2-way tuned bass reflex design
Ruark 26mm silk dome tweeter
Ruark 15cm treated natural fibre cone woofer

The Ruark Sabre-R Bookshelf Speaker marks a revival of the brand's very first loudspeaker series, which gained recognition in 1985 for its exceptional cabinet craftsmanship and advanced driver technology. Now, 40 years later, Ruark have developed a speaker that beautifully combines timeless tradition with modern technical advancements. The Sabre-R integrates innovations such as a 26mm silk dome tweeter with a neodymium motor system and a 15cm natural fibre cone woofer, delivering a refined and natural sound.

With its braced and damped MDF cabinet, the Sabre-R is designed to minimise resonances and distortion. Its two-way tuned bass reflex design enhances and controls bass, while the elegant finishes in Fused Walnut or Satin Charcoal lacquer give it an aesthetic appeal to match its sonic performance. Compact yet powerful, the Sabre-R brings both vintage style and modern acoustic engineering to any listening environment—a delight for both longtime Ruark enthusiasts and new generations of audiophiles.

Made to Be Seen

In true Ruark style, our attention to detail is paramount and the Sabre-R Bookshelf Speakers are as pleasing to the eye as they are to the ear. Hand-crafted and clad with finishes usually only found on fine furniture, the Sabre-Rs bring understated elegance to both classic and contemporary interiors. The veneers used also have true eco credentials, where sustainable woods are skillfully spliced and recomposed to resemble slow-growing hardwoods with unique and eye-catching grain patterns.

Designed for Sound

Creating a great sounding speaker is an art that can only be mastered through years of experience. Like a chef who can make your taste buds dance, the key is knowing the ingredients to use and how to best use them. The cabinets for Sabre-R have been carefully tuned and optimised to provide ideal working conditions for our custom long-throw bass-mid drivers and endless hours have been spent fine tuning the crossovers, so a seamless transition between the drivers is attained. The end result are speakers with a remarkable musical performance that breathe zest and life into every song.

Sabre-R + R610

Perfect Partners

On their own, Sabre-Rs are a tempting proposition for customers seeking high performance speakers for their existing hi-fi separates, but for customers seeking a complete musical solution, Sabre-R and R610 together create a formidable package. Whatever your taste, Sabre-R and R610 creates a magical combination, that will have you discovering again the delight that music and sound can bring.
