Why you will love it

A tuner, Bluetooth and a wood cabinet

Tivoli says the Model One BT pairs a tuner that brings clarity to many of the weakest stations with Bluetooth. It describes the handmade wood cabinet as an acoustically inert housing.

A single 3 inch full-range driver and a bass port deliver 6W of output in mono.

Three knobs, AM, FM and Bluetooth

A volume knob, a source knob and a tuning dial run everything. Turn the source knob one click for FM, two for AM and three for auxiliary. The dial covers FM on the upper half and AM on the lower half.

To use Bluetooth, turn the radio to the auxiliary position and pair it with your phone or tablet. Tivoli says the wired aux input is not available while a Bluetooth device is connected.

Connections on the back

The model has a 3.5mm auxiliary input, a stereo headphone output and a fixed-level stereo REC OUT. The headphone output mutes the speaker. REC OUT does not.

An FM antenna switch selects the internal or an external antenna. An external FM antenna is in the box. There is also an external AM antenna jack, and an AM antenna is not included.

I love this radio, it’s perfect.
Tivoli Audio Model One BT Radio has the rich sound I remember from my youth. Very simple to use. Strong sturdy quality construction makes it feel, look and sound like a quality product. I love the on/off button that is lacking on most modern products. It’s a keeper and I might get another one for the kitchen. One good addition would be the ability to still hear the radio with a cable in the audio socket. Maybe a switch like the one to turn on an external antenna. It’s fiddly having turn the unit to plug in the headphone cable, and Bluetooth wireless headphones don’t work without a BT transmitter like AirFly. Just something to be aware of. I put mine on a swivel base to make it easier to turn to plug in headphones at night. I would highly recommend this product and wish I bought one years ago.

Clearly the best radio ever!
The Tivoli Audio Model One BT is beautiful, simple and sounds glorious. It does everything I want without making anything complicated—and it looks gorgeous while doing it. I love the satisfying simplicity of tuning the dial, the warmth and clarity of the sound, and the ease of connecting through Bluetooth.
A beautifully designed object, a brilliant radio and an absolute joy to live with. I love it.
