Tivoli Radio???

Well, clearly we don't all hear the same. As I said, I own
three of them and think they provide exceptional performance for the cost. I especially like the portability and signal capturing capability of the PAL. I will probably buy more in the future and have no hesitation in recommending them to others. I will offer that the Three is my least favorite from a sound perspective. I suspect it is because of the top mounted speaker not being optimum placement. I don't believe they are as good as the great radios of the past. All, in my opinion, are superior to the Bose and the Cambridge.

Send it out for Mods, get it cryoed, hook up to a high end power cord/dedicated circuit, mount it an a Sistrum Platform and it sounds better than a DK Integrated...

Maybe I ought to go hear a PAL, I'm always up for a good small portable radio.

When I was growing up, we had a rather large Zenith table radio. It was in a wood enclosure with small feet. It had tubes of course and was a two-way. A bit bass heavy but, damn, it sounded great.

Gunbei, I've had a few of those Protons and gave some as gifts. Mine developed an irritating hum, which is apparently a problem they have. Proton has given up the ghost, but basically the same radio is still sold (or was a couple of years ago) under the Sangean label. I bought one but there was the hum so I sent it back. Maybe I shouldn't have. This Cambridge Soundworks thing I have is not good.

Last year, I was in a hotel in Paris and there was a Bose Wave in my room. I put it on a local classical station. I have to say, it sounded very good to me. Go ahead, throw me out of here, but it's true.
