Digital camera reviews of Tivoli Audio Model Subwoofer, Cherry/Metallic Taupe
Digital camera Review: "Required reading" to include the sub, here's why:
Summary: 5 Stars
First of all, I see there's a bit of controversy out here about hiss, and whether the sub is worth the money. I hope to clarify this in simple terms. To begin with, I have an audiophile quality system. Conrad Johnson, Tandberg, NAD, Celestion components, yet having moved into a new home, I didn't want to see all those components and speakers in my living room with new wood floors. I had hoped that this system with the sub would fit the bill, but was rather skeptical, after reading reviews here. So here's my vote. Get the Model 2, and get the sub. It's all worth it, but you'll never "hear" it, until it's set up properly. First off, I'm a ham; and anyone can tell you, that you're only as good as your antenna. I used a roof mount full size FM antenna as my baseline reference, but didn't want it on my roof. I replaced it quite nicely with the Radio Shack 15-1859 for $24.99. However, like the speakers, placement is everything. I put on headphones and tuned it to a difficult station, then moved the antenna until it was clear, so I could move free of the unit without having to be in front of the speakers to listen. Wa-la.. After a few minutes of testing, I attained absolutely noisless signal and along with it; perfect spacial seperation. Next, I found that the speaker placement is very critical to set the proper soundstage, and get "as it was intended to be heard" seperation. I did buy the sub, but for now, leave it turned off. Also, don't rely on leaving the balance centered. I had to tweak it, so don't be afraid to. Try putting on some Andres Segovia and keep adjusting the balance until you hear the "open ambiance" of the auditorium he played in. Listen to attain a spacial result. Then you're set. NOW turn on your sub. Also, to those who say the sub isn't needed. Fooey. It's well worth the money, and provides the third leg of the triangle to truly present what this system can do. Once all that is set, knock yourself out. It's a no brainer, and yes, again; the sub is "required" and well worth it. For references as to what this system can do, try Patrick O'Hearn/Metaphor, Andreas Vollenweider/Book of Roses, and Tower of Power/Soul Vaccination (LIVE). They will let you hear what this baby can do. Kinda like driving a Porsche on a straight road at 40 mph, and saying "it's not that hot". Context is everything. Hope this helped. Again, what I found to be necessary were, signal quality, speaker placement/balance adjustment, without sub; then sub added. For me, this system is a keeper, and will keep my former audio system packed away for now. To me, unobtrusiveness; from "invisible" components, and "is that coming out of that?" performance, is coming out on top, and winning big. Go for it. It's a rare find, and a great value.
Summary of Tivoli Audio Model Subwoofer, Cherry/Metallic Taupe
For the critical listener looking to get the most from their music, computer games, or television sound, the diminutive Model Subwoofer extends the Tivoli Audio's Model Two Stereo Radio and Model Three Clock Radio's bass response by a half-octave. Don't confuse the Model Subwoofer with inexpensive computer speaker subwoofers with sloppy bass. The Model Subwoofer's 5 ¼" bass driver, 20 watt internal amplifier, front ported design, and cherry wood cabinet all translate into rich, musical sound. The Boston Globe said the Model Subwoofer "adds heft and foundation to the music. And it's fairly tight, not too thumpy." Features include an Auto On/Standby circuit, an unusual feature for a subwoofer of this size, which activates the subwoofer automatically when it receives a signal and places it in standby when the signal is absent. A power on LED indicator signal when a signal is being received and notes when the unit is in standby mode.Subwoofers
