Why not use the headphone out?


I found a very good site about radios (www.eham.net), and there is a
very good review about Tivoli model one the

"The issue I have is that many of the commercial stations (all playing
music I don't want to hear-but you might) around here pump up the audio
and boost the bass in the transmission process, this excessive bass
boost by the station added to the bass boost included in the radio to
offset the tiny speaker can make the radio sound boomy and tubby with
distorted lows, and there aren't any tone controls to fix this."

No, because the instruments have already been tuned and placed for that
hall. That's what tome controls do in your home - compensate for your
particular room and music *recordings*.

What a silly comparison!

If this Tivoli junk was "intelligently designed" you might have a point.

I only use the "tome" controls when playing the Grateful dead.

I'm very satisfied with my Tivoli Model One. It has a very pleasant
sound, and is reasonably sensitive on FM, which is what I use it for
(to listen to FM). I have a C Crane FM Reflect indoor FM antenna hooked
to it. But the Tivoli sucks on AM. I can probably hear more AM stations
with a brick.

Don't mistake the Tivoli for a serious FM DX machine, it's not. For
that I use an SAE T101 FM tuner.
