Groovy Comeback, Bold Blue and Beyond
70s-Inspired Restyling by Tivoli: Refreshing a Timeless Design with Bold Hues from the Past
channels the retro vibe with a vibrant twist! This limited-edition series, crafted by Tivoli Audio, fuses the timeless walnut cabinets of the Model One BT speaker and updates them with eye-catching new colorways. Choose from Poppy Red, Highlighter Yellow, Avocado Green, Golden Hour Orange, and Navy Blue, each hue matched in the speaker's knobs and metal components for a harmonious design.
Fun and Functionality
As the home speaker market becomes more competitive and technical, the '70s Color Collection prioritizes fun and nostalgia. The colors take you back to the days of your parents' vintage fridges and hip living room furniture. For me, the Navy Blue colorway is a favorite, a refined touch amidst the louder options.
Nostalgic Tech with Modern Perks
Tivoli avoids giving in completely to the retro atmosphere, wisely preserving the Model One BT's standout aspects. This means you get the best of both worlds – classic design and modern functionality.
Launched in the year 2000, the Model One was an AM/FM radio with design inspiration from the '50s and '60s. Ten years later, introducing Bluetooth functionality, the BT model retained the traditional analog dials, wood cabinet, and excellent sound quality. Besides Bluetooth connectivity, the speakers also offer a 3.5mm auxiliary input and support AM and FM radio frequencies.
The tactile approach of the Model One BT builds a satisfying connection to your media through knobs for volume, tuning, and input mode.
Colors Come at a Premium
The only downside? The '70s Color Collection adds a $40 premium over the standard Model One BT. If the original beige, black, and silver faceplates are more your style, you'll appreciate the lower price tag.
