JSngry Posted November 17, 2018 Report Posted November 17, 2018 Is that Tivoli radio any good? I see that their clock radio is $299.99. I like waking up on time, but not that much! Quote
GA Russell Posted November 18, 2018 Author Report Posted November 18, 2018 Jim, the reviews say that the thing is fantastic. Quote
paul secor Posted November 18, 2018 Report Posted November 18, 2018 I bought a Tivoli for my wife. My old Advent radio is better. Quote
Scott Dolan Posted November 18, 2018 Report Posted November 18, 2018 I don’t personally know anyone that owns one, but I’ve seen nothing but raves about them. Never even knew about their alarm clock. Seems like a bit much. Quote

JSngry Posted November 19, 2018 Report Posted November 19, 2018 Pour my coffee, drink it, and piss it out so I don't have to spend all that time in the can once I get to my desk. If I can all get that, I'll deal with the dog. But only if! Quote
Kevin Bresnahan Posted November 19, 2018 Report Posted November 19, 2018 That Tivoli clock radio looks like a real dog. The Amazon reviews are pretty bad. From overly bright lights to poorly contrasted, or rather, unreadable writing on the dials, it doesn't seem like something I'd want. On top of that, it has one of those single arm alarms. Am I the only one who remembers how shitty those were to set? You almost always had to stick to "on the hour" alarms and even if you did that, you could be off by 10 minutes in either direction. Yuck. Quote
Scott Dolan Posted November 19, 2018 Report Posted November 19, 2018 The $300 model is quite the bargain. https://www.tivoliaudio.com/shop/music-system-am-fm-bluetooth-cd-hifi-system?variant=MSYBT-1462-NA Quote
felser Posted November 19, 2018 Report Posted November 19, 2018 (edited) Paid under $20 for my GE clock radio.  It wakes me up fine, and gives me the traffic and weather via KYW.  Edited November 19, 2018 by felser Quote
medjuck Posted November 19, 2018 Report Posted November 19, 2018 I still have my old Cambridge Audio clock radio. Unfortunately the cd player part of it broke so I've had to use a cheap DVD player as a turntable. Quote
