swissmiss is an online garden (aka design blog) run by Tina Roth Eisenberg, a Swiss designer gone NYC.
Gift Idea: Tivoli Audio Model One
Tivoli Audio Model One. Designed by Henry-Kloss, the Model One has become a legend among radios and an example of late 20th century engineering and design
I have one of these about a year ago and I absolutely LOVE it. It has great sound and it doesn’t take up a lot of space. With the purchase of a $20 cord, you can hook it up to your iPod/iPhone. You won’t regret it. I never have.
We’ve had one since they came out, years ago. Fantastic radios. Be aware that they won’t play LOUD (one small 3-inch(?) speaker) but what sound they do make is wonderful. Better than our Bose ‘Wave’ radio, in my opinion. You can’t go wrong with one of these.
Buy the Model 2 instead (different color combinations exist) http://www.tivoliaudio.com/product.php?productid=144
and I’d say it DOES play pretty loud.
I’ve had mine for a few years now, and love the warm, room-filling sound that it gives.
Swissmiss is an online garden Tina Roth Eisenberg started in 2005 and has lovingly tended to ever since.
Besides swissmiss, Tina founded and runs TeuxDeux, CreativeMornings and her Brooklyn based co-working community Friends Work Here. (She also started Tattly which was recently adopted by BIC)

Bought one of these for the parents for Christmas last year, and they loved it! It sounds absolutely amazing and looks beautiful.
And either all or most come with an auxiliary in port so you can plug your iPod right into it.

I also recommend the Tivoli Model 3 Clock Radio. It’s lovely to wake up to perfectly tuned Bach!

We’ve also had one at home for many years now. It’s simply fantastic.

Yeah, these are great. Considering a set of Tivoli speakers to go with my squeezebox receivers.
