Yeah, I know
there are probably better places to ask this question than a cutlery discussion forum
. Still, Ive finally decided to replace the miserable little clock radio in my office and I was wondering if this product might be a good choice. Its a Henry Kloss-designed table radio thats about as simple in appearance and function as a radio can get (although it allegedly has some pretty sophisticated innards). I just want a relatively small AM/FM radio that has good reception and reasonably good sound quality (no need for CD/tape player or remotes). The selections of table radios and boom boxes that Ive seen in the local electronics stores are pretty dismal
they all seem to be targeted at a juvenile market thats more interested in flashing lights and pseudo-high tech designs than performance and value (almost everything I saw looked like leftovers from the set of a cheap sci-fi flick
). The Tivoli Model One seems to be everything that the competition isnt
minimalist retro-funky design, impressive pedigree and reasonably priced. All of the reviews Ive found of this radio seem to be very positive, and Im very intrigued by the concept
I just want to make sure that I make at least a minimal effort to sort through the hype before I make my decision. So, does anyone have any experience with this radio? Or any suggestions for quality alternatives? Thanks
Jim
