I've got a pair of these I bought in 1995, partnered (then) by Arcam Alpha 9 and 9P bi-amped.
Long story short, I got into DIY audio early 2000's and the Ruarks were retired to the spare room and not used again until....
This year. I got back into DIY again and "upgraded" a Slim Devices Transporter and then built a Douglas Self "Tri-modal" amplifier from scratch using pcbs ordered direct from Douglas.
Did I say "long story short"? lol
Anyway, to the point, I am using the Ruarks with the Trimodal amp and these speakers are fab despite being over 25 years old! I was so impressed. They do sound far better now than they ever did with the Arcams.
been listening to some of these today .... impressive for the money . very natural
ou might slip, you might slide, you might
Stumble and fall by the road side
But don't you ever let nobody drag your spirit down
Remember you're walking up to heaven
Don't let nobody turn you around
… Walk with the rich, walk with the poor
Learn from everyone, that's what life is for
And don't you let nobody drag your spirit down

Well I paid £750 in 1996 so they weren't dirt cheap but they did sound way better than the competition that I auditioned at the time.
