Tivoli Audio: Reviving the Retro Appeal

Promoted Content

Retro designs radiate their charm even in modern households, and music has a way of ebbing its way into luxury living rooms riding on these artful designs. Tivoli is the brand that took the humble radio and turned it into a piece of art, adapting it to modern living rooms. Tivoli Audio was founded in 2000 with its Model One, a timeless AM/FM radio that blended classic functionality with contemporary design. The latest lineup adds modern wireless tech to this veritable combo, seamlessly blending in with the luxury decor in your living room.

Tivoli Audio’s products are engineered to reproduce natural sound notwithstanding the limitations of a compact form factor. Materials are carefully chosen to meet this quality. Tivoli’s Indian offerings fall into two product lines — Classic Collection and ART Collection.

Classic Collection

This is home to the original radios in Tivoli Audio’s portfolio, characterised by mechanical dials and knobs reminiscent of those immortal classics. At the base of the collection is the device that started it all, the Model One, an AM/FM radio with just three knobs and a single mono speaker. The radio is finished in an elegant handmade wooden cabinet. 

Changing with time, Tivoli later infused the Model One with Bluetooth, transforming the classic radio into a compact streaming device with the Model One BT. Tivoli’s Classic portfolio in India offers the Model One BT in a Walnut/Beige dual-tone finish.

Art Collection

Tivoli’s Art Collection bestows a technological twist upon the classic collection with an emphasis on craftsmanship and modern design elements. With Chromecast, Airplay 2, Spotify Connect and Bluetooth built-in, this lineup is built to integrate with your smart home setup seamlessly. 

The Model One Digital Generation 2 offers a forward-compatible Wi-Fi module and comes with an FM radio. The device includes a full-function remote control with presets for Spotify and other popular streaming services. The Model One Digital Gen 2 is available in dual-tone finishes with Walnut, White, and Black as leading colours. The device combines furniture-grade wood, aluminium, and eco-friendly fabrics in its construction.

The Music System Home Generation 2 is an all-in-one home entertainment system that offers AM and FM with support for optical and Wi-Fi connectivity. This device comes with four drivers for an impressive stereo output. The Music System Home Generation 2 offers a compact all-in-one solution whether you are upgrading your TV audio or looking for a wired output for your turntable.

Revive is the lone Bluetooth-only product in the Art collection, and is crafted in the form of a bedside lamp with an LED. This speaker unit includes a Qi-standard wireless phone charger so that you and your phone wake up fully recharged. The device offers simple operation with Bluetooth and aux connectivity. The speaker can be pivoted up to 15 degrees to adjust the direction of audio. The LED lamp offers four brightness settings with a touch-sensitive button built into the wooden base.      

Tivoli’s designs resonate with the brand’s expertise in crafting audio products that present a delicate balance between style and sound, remaining true to classic design aesthetics.
