Great sound and reception! Located this radio on a kitchen counter, in a corner, under a cabinet, 10 feet from closest window, no extra antenna. Radio stations (am and fm) come through crystal clear. Cannot say the same for competitor with S name. Very happy with this purchase.
The sound is great, the Bluetooth works fine, but its a RADIO, and the one thing I expected is a great tuner. Adding an external antenna helped, but its still subject to drift and unlistenable at times. And its not my location as my receiver tuner and other plain radios receive local stations fine. Of course I can listen to almost any radio through Bluetooth, but its still frustrating. I also appreciate the in port too and can still play CDs through a portable CD player, which sounds great. Oh well, the future is internet radio anyway.
Love it. Big sound, small package. Natural wood case classy & gives rich sound. Auxiliary 3.5 MM input jack lets you play your mobile device through the Tivoli using a simple wire cord. I play Spodify & Pandora music like this all the time & it sounds fantastic. Simple, clean design with amazing sound. Worth every penny.
I was in love with this radio for the first two years that I've had it, though after keeping it in a very dusty area I'm afraid dust may have gotten inside or theres a different problem. While listening to the radio the light suddenly goes out and an awful noise comes on. I'm hoping I can get it fixed somehow, some users suggested tuning back and forth rapidly but it doesn't seem to help. I hope I can find a place to clean it as this radio was perfect. The sound is amazing and gets very loud, I love that I can plug my phone into it too.
I needed a nice AM/FM radio to replace an old Sony unit purchased back in the mid-1990s. This unit does everything as advertised: small footprint, nice projection, good reception even without an external antenna. Have not yet listened through headphone jack... No complaints.
I've owned my Tivoli Audio Model One now for about 6 years. After years of daily use I can say that the quality and the aesthetics are excellent. My only qualm is that the external antenna seems to actually be worse than the internal antenna option. This isn't a problem if you are trying to pick up stations with a strong signal, but this can be frustrating when you're reaching for the weaker ones.I love the "feel" of the tuner knob on this thing. It has resistance when you turn it that allows you to fine tune your station search (analog!). I will say, however, that my knob - after years of use - has drifted a bit and the marking on the dial points to about 0.5 MHz off of what it shows.Despite the fact that I have encountered two minor issues (knob drift and poor external antenna function), I'd still buy another and I'd recommend it to my friends. This is a very solid radio with plenty of functionality for all types of applications.
