Tivoli Audio Henry Kloss Model One AM/FM Table Radio in Classic/Walnut
Where performance and simplicity are paramount but space is sparse, the Model
One mono table radio fits the bill. With just three knobs, it is the antithesis
of today’s ever more complex electronic products. But behind the Model One’s
simple, innocent appearance, hides a multitude of technology facilitating higher
sound reproduction and better reception over anything else near it in size or
cost. The furniture-grade, handmade wood cabinet is not just for appearance
sake, but also doubles as an acoustically inert housing. A heavy-magnet,
long-throw 3-inch driver is allied with a multi-stage frequency contouring
circuit that adjusts the speaker’s output over half-octave increments. The
result is musically accurate tonal balance and bass response. Instead of a
standard, off-the-shelf integrated circuit, the Model One uses a state of the
art, discrete-component FM tuner featuring GaAs MES-FET mixers. Originally
developed for cellular telephones, the Model One was the first radio to adopt
this technology for better FM reception and increased clarity on closely spaced
stations. Discovering those stations is a joy thanks to the large analog tuning
knob. Its geared-down 5:1 tuning ratio permits easy and accurate tuning. The
amber tuning indicator lets you know when you’ve achieved proper tuning.
Built-in AM and FM antennas provide satisfying reception, while a rear 75-ohm
jack allows connection of an external FM antenna in difficult reception areas.
Also provided is a headphone jack, auxiliary input to connect a portable CD
player or other device, and a record output for recording, or to use the Model
One as a high-quality outboard tuner. Available in several color/wood finishes
to suit most tastes, the Model One looks right at home whether perched on a
kitchen counter, in a dorm room, bedroom, at the office, vacation home, on a
workbench, or even in an RV or boat (using the 12V input). Stereophile magazine
lists the Model One as a Recommended Component and declared it has "a
richness, a warmth, a generosity of tone, and a clarity that made for enjoyable
listening." MSNBC advises, "If you’re looking for the best sounding
AM/FM table radio ever made, then you should check out Henry Kloss’ latest and
greatest invention- the Model One." The Model One has made numerous
appearances including NBC’s today show and an MTV music video. Henry said his
Model One was "the culmination of more than 40 years of bringing music into
people’s homes via products they tend to keep and enjoy." So perhaps it
was inevitable that the Model One quickly established itself as our most popular
product. External FM antenna and 9’ power cord included. One year warranty.
