A portable Bluetooth and FM radio from Tivoli Audio (Gen 3). It has three knobs, a weather-resistant matte cabinet and a USB-C rechargeable battery.
Tivoli says the PAL BT combines retro style with a modern groove and avoids the overly complicated controls of many portable speakers. It comes in Red, Blue, Gray, Black and White.
Why you will love it
FM radio and Bluetooth on three knobs
The PAL BT has an FM tuner and Bluetooth 5.1 streaming, and Tivoli describes a clean, intuitive design with just three knobs. The front of the radio shows the tuning dial and a source switch marked Off, FM, Aux and BT.
A 3.5mm auxiliary input plays another device through the speaker, and a stereo headphone output is built in.

Sound from a 2.5 inch driver
The speaker is a mono design with one 2.5 inch full-range neodymium driver, 56-bit DSP processing and 24-bit stereo audio ADC and DAC, according to Tivoli.

A built-in rechargeable battery gives 10 hours of battery life, according to Tivoli's specifications. Tivoli says the PAL BT charges over USB-C and is compatible with fast PD charging at 5V and 9V input.
