Add a pair of speakers and it runs the whole room: CDs, records, Spotify and TIDAL, internet radio, and TV sound, all without a rack of separate boxes. One console replaces a separate amplifier, streamer, and CD player.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #f9f5f0; border-left: 4px solid #A3704D; padding: 12px 16px; margin: 16px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePre-Order Now.\u003c\/strong\u003e Shipping estimated October 2026.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eKey Features of the Ruark R710\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated Slot-Loading CD Player:\u003c\/strong\u003e A full CD player concealed behind the walnut slats, reading Red Book CD-DA and CD-R discs with no visible tray or drawer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2 x 200W Class-D Amplifier:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 watts per channel into 4 ohms at 0.01% THD, fed by a low-noise switch-mode power supply.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHi-Res Streaming to 32-bit\/192kHz:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Apple AirPlay 2, Google Cast, internet radio, and HD Bluetooth, all built in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-In MM Phono Stage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Connect a turntable directly through the RCA phono input, with no separate preamp to buy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBurr-Brown 32-bit\/192kHz DAC and ADC:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-resolution conversion in both directions for digital and analogue sources.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHDMI ARC\/eARC:\u003c\/strong\u003e One cable to your TV for film and TV sound through your speakers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRotoDial Control and a 6.8\" Colour Display:\u003c\/strong\u003e The top-mounted RotoDial, a matching rechargeable wireless remote, and a high-contrast colour screen for menus and album art.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo Real Finishes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fused Walnut or Charcoal Lacquer, each with a walnut slat facia.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUS Distribution by Fidelity Imports:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ruark's official United States distributor handles supply and support in the States.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003e200 Watts Per Channel From a Low-Noise Amplifier\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe R710 runs a Hi-Fidelity Class-D amplifier rated at 2 x 200W into 4 ohms at 0.01% THD, fed by a switch-mode power supply with short signal paths and careful grounding for low noise. That is enough power to drive bookshelf and floorstanding speakers to room-filling levels with headroom to spare. Audio-grade components are used throughout, and switchable Stereo+ widens the soundstage when speakers sit close together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eEverything a Serious Listener Needs: Streaming, Radio and Media\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA quad-core processor handles hi-res streaming to 32-bit\/192kHz without stutter. Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, Apple AirPlay 2, Google Cast, internet radio, and HD Bluetooth (aptX HD) are all built in, so almost any source finds a way in. The R710 also plays from UPnP\/DLNA network media servers and a USB-C port, and plays lossless FLAC, AIFF, ALAC and WAV files up to 32-bit\/192kHz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/ruark-audio-r710-sources-rotodial.jpg?v=1783598457\" alt=\"Ruark R710 in Fused Walnut, colour display showing the source menu with a hand on the RotoDial remote\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eA CD Player Hidden in the Walnut Slats\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe R710 has a slot-loading CD player concealed behind the walnut facia, reading Red Book CD-DA and CD-R discs. The disc feeds in through the slats, so there is no visible tray to break the clean front. Ruark makes the case that uncompressed CD can still better streaming on sound quality, and building the player into the console means one less box and one less remote. It is the feature that sets the R710 apart from the streaming-only R610 below it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/ruark-audio-r710-concealed-cd.jpg?v=1783598460\" alt=\"Ruark R710 in Charcoal Lacquer with a CD loading through the walnut slat facia\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eA Built-In Phono Stage for Your Turntable\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe R710 includes a moving-magnet (MM) phono stage on an RCA turntable input, rated to a maximum 8mV, so you can connect a record player directly with no external phono preamp. That keeps a full vinyl front end inside the same console that handles CDs and streaming. For anyone rebuilding a system around one tidy source, it removes a box that would otherwise sit between the turntable and the amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eRotoDial Control, a Colour Display and Every Connection\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RotoDial controller, a Ruark hallmark since 2006 and redeveloped for the 100 Series, sits on the top surface, and a matching rechargeable wireless remote comes in the box. A high-contrast 6.8\" colour TFT display with auto-dimming shows menus, station information, and album artwork. Around the back are HDMI ARC\/eARC for TV sound, an optical input (to 24-bit\/96kHz), stereo RCA line in, a selectable line\/pre-out, a mono subwoofer output, a 3.5mm headphone jack, gold-plated 4mm binding posts, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and USB-C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/ruark-audio-r710-rotodial-top.jpg?v=1783598812\" alt=\"Ruark R710 in Charcoal Lacquer, top-down view of the RotoDial controls and remote with a CD in the slot\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003e70s-Inspired Design in Two Finishes\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe R710 measures 375mm wide, 125mm tall, and 345mm deep including its controls and feet, and weighs 6.6kg. Ruark describes it as a fusion of 70s-inspired design and modern technology, with the low, wide profile of a classic music centre. It comes in Fused Walnut, with a matching walnut cabinet and slat facia, or Charcoal Lacquer, which pairs a black lacquered cabinet with the same walnut slats. Both are made to sit out on a sideboard rather than hide in a rack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/ruark-audio-r710-walnut-lifestyle.jpg?v=1783598462\" alt=\"Ruark R710 in Fused Walnut on a sideboard, colour display showing album artwork\" style=\"width:100%;max-width:1000px;height:auto;border-radius:12px;margin:16px 0;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.tlr-cmp{margin:10px 0 4px;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-sub{color:#555;font-size:16px;margin:0 0 14px;line-height:1.5;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-row{border:1px solid #eee;border-radius:8px;padding:13px 14px;margin:8px 0;cursor:pointer;transition:border-color .2s ease;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-row:hover{border-color:#d9c6b3;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-cur{background:#f7f1ec;border:1px solid #ecdcca;border-left:3px solid #a3704d;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-cur:hover{border-left-color:#a3704d;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-name{font-weight:700;color:#2a2b2a;font-size:16px;line-height:1.35;text-transform:none;}\n.tlr-cmp a{color:#2a2b2a !important;text-decoration:none !important;opacity:1 !important;border-bottom:none !important;padding-bottom:2px;\n  background-image:linear-gradient(#a3704d,#a3704d),linear-gradient(#cbb9a6,#cbb9a6);\n  background-position:left 100%,left 100%;background-size:0% 2px,100% 1px;background-repeat:no-repeat;\n  transition:background-size .35s ease;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-row:hover .cmp-name a,\n.tlr-cmp a:hover{background-size:100% 2px,100% 1px !important;opacity:1 !important;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-youre{font-size:10px;letter-spacing:.06em;text-transform:uppercase;color:#9a8e74;font-weight:700;margin-left:7px;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-price{color:#a3704d;font-weight:700;font-size:16px;margin:2px 0 3px;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-diff{color:#555;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-verdict{margin:16px 0 4px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;color:#555;}\n.tlr-cmp .cmp-verdict a{color:#a3704d !important;font-weight:700;\n  background-image:linear-gradient(#a3704d,#a3704d),linear-gradient(#d8c3ac,#d8c3ac);}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tlr-cmp\"\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eWhere the R710 fits in Ruark's 100 Series consoles\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"cmp-sub\"\u003eHow the R710 compares to the other Ruark consoles, and what each one adds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cmp-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cmp-name\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/ruark-audio-r610-music-console\"\u003eRuark R610 Music Console\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cmp-price\"\u003e$1,899\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"cmp-diff\"\u003eA 75W streaming console with a built-in phono stage and HDMI eARC.
