Product Description

The Ruark MR1 Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers + Audio-Technica LP3XBT Turntable bundle offers a refined and easy way to enjoy vinyl with modern wireless convenience.

Pairing Ruark’s compact active speakers with the fully automatic Audio-Technica LP3XBT turntable, this system delivers clear, balanced stereo sound without the need for a separate amplifier.

Ideal for desks, shelves or living spaces, the LP3XBT combines precise belt-drive playback with Bluetooth streaming, while the MR1 speakers provide high-quality amplification and versatile connectivity for music, TV audio and wireless listening.

  • Bluetooth Wireless Playback: Stream records wirelessly from the turntable or play music from smartphones and tablets directly through the speakers.

  • Precision Belt-Drive Design: The LP3XBT uses a low-vibration belt-drive system to maintain stable platter rotation and accurate playback.

  • Upgradable Moving Magnet Cartridge: Supplied with a factory-fitted cartridge and removable headshell, allowing easy cartridge upgrades in the future.

  • True Stereo Sound: Dedicated left and right speakers create a wide soundstage with detailed mids, crisp highs and controlled bass.

  • Compact, Premium Design: Real wood cabinet finishes and minimalist styling allow the system to blend naturally into modern or traditional interiors.

  • Versatile Listening Options: In addition to vinyl playback, the MR1 speakers support Bluetooth and optical inputs for streaming music or improving TV sound.

  • Optional Subwoofer: Select the subwoofer option and create the ultimate 2.1 stereo speaker system with a significant upgrade to the bass and mid-range.
