Made to Be Seen
In true Ruark style, the 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 the custom long-throw bass-mid drivers. Endless hours have been spent fine-tuning the crossovers, so a seamless transition between the drivers is attained. The result is speakers with a remarkable musical performance that breathes zest and life into every song.
