The perfect radio

Like other Tivoli radios, the PAL has an excellent tuner (why aren't all radios this good?) that easily picks up NPR where other radios don't. Sound is very well balanced, though not quite as good as the Model 1. However, the rechargeable battery makes...

Nice Product, A Bit Overrated, Marginal Value

The sound quality in published reviews is overrated. That the sound quality is generally considered "excellent" is more a testimony to how bad are other similar products. It is NOT a mini Bose Wave Radio, not even close, the Bose being extraordinary...

indispensable!

In a word, the Tivoli PAL is indispensable. It functions for us chiefly as a kitchen radio and certainly within that function it far surpasses anything else we've ever owned. We spend quite a bit of time in our little kitchen and enjoy catching NPR...

Horrible Battery Life

A great beater

I got mine years ago when they first came out. The style, the soft beauty of whatever sort of rubbery-flocksy kind of finish, the legendary designer and the promised performance was compelling enough to buy. The controls are especially nice, with a...

The little radio that could... be better.

My two cents here only reinforces what a few others have said before. This compact and rugged little radio has impressive sound and better than average reception. I can pull in every station in my town with only minor adjustments to its antenna for FM...

Product Specifications

For those who want great sounding music wherever they go and products in hot fashion colors that look as good as they sound, Tivoli Audio introduces its PAL 2005 Fashion Collection. The new colors make PAL a great collector's item with flair toward high style and fashion. The Tivoli Audio design team selects the colors based on the newest European fashion trends, previewed on the runways of Milan.The Henry Kloss Portable Audio Laboratory's treated 2.5" magnetically shielded driver and rubberized cabinet are weather resistant, so your PAL can keep you company by the pool or the patio. And its environmentally friendly rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride battery pack has no memory and fully charges in about 3 hours, providing many hours of cordless playback. The clever little green LED serves as both a power and battery status indicator.The PAL borrows the same geared-down 5:1 ratio analog tuning dial as used in the critically acclaimed Model One radio for easy, accurate tuning. Also on tap is an auxiliary input to connect a CD, MP3 player, or other device, and a stereo headphone output for private listening, as a recording output, or to use the PAL as a high-quality outboard tuner. The tuner features Automatic Frequency Control (AFC) which locks on to the center of the station for best reception and lowest distortion, while the adjustable telescoping FM antenna extends and rotates for improved FM reception (there is also a built-in AM antenna).
