In a world full of smart devices, many still treasure an AM/FM radio. Tivoli Audio’s Model One, known for its mid-century modern design, is quite popular. Building on its well-loved audio gear, the company has released the 3rd generation Model One with new upgrades inside and out to suit modern users. This new version combines a beautiful design with more wireless features and better sound quality.
The latest Model One streams your favorite music, podcasts, and news seamlessly over Wi-Fi using Google Cast, AirPlay, or a voice assistant device like Google Home or Apple HomePod. You can also enjoy classic radio through FM or DAB+, and connect wired devices via an Auxiliary input or use Bluetooth audio without needing Wi-Fi.
The Tivoli Audio Model One Digital Gen 3 is a versatile audio device perfect for a connected home. It combines streaming, radio, and timeless design in a compact unit. Simply connect once, and everyone in the home can stream music from their own phone, tablet, or laptop, making music a shared experience.
The third-generation Model One features a 20-watt amplifier, bass ported design, and precisely tuned equalization to deliver full-range sound. The newly engineered full-range driver delivers a broader 0–20kHz frequency response. It also includes advanced processing like 56-bit DSP and supports high-resolution lossless audio streaming up to 48kHz/24-bit.
In terms of aesthetics, the Gen 3 design takes inspiration from the Model Two Digital and Boutique speakers, featuring a brushed metal grille and a sleek shape that suits modern spaces. It is made with real wood and aluminum hardware for a timeless look. The big tuning dial from the Model One BT returns in a new style, along with a display onboard. There is also a single knob for source selection and volume control.
