Model Three Instructions
Congratulations on your purchase of the Model Three. We believe the Model Three to be one of
the finest AM/FM radios available. Henry Kloss dedicated over half his life introducing people to
the joy of music through finely crafted hi-fidelity products. From his classic AR speakers of the
1950s, to the Model 8 table radio of the 60s, to Tivoli Audio radios of today, he consistently im-
pressed consumers and critics alike with the quality and value of his offerings.
In order to take full advantage of what your new Model Three is capable of, please take a moment
to fully read this owner’s manual. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact your dealer
or Tivoli Audio directly.
Please save the carton and original packing should you ever need to ship your radio, as
shipping damage is not covered by the factory warranty.
On behalf of all of us, thank you for choosing Tivoli Audio and enjoy your new clock radio!
About Tivoli Audio
Tivoli Audio was founded by Tom DeVesto with the mission of bringing simple to use, elegantly
designed, high quality audio products to consumers. As CEO and head of research and develop-
ment at his former company, Cambridge SoundWorks, Tom was responsible for the development
of many of the best selling home entertainment and multi-media products on the market. He also
held senior management positions in product development at both Advent and Kloss Video.
Henry Kloss (1929-2002) began his long love affair with audio back in the early 1950’s when, as a
student at M.I.T., he began building speaker enclosures for fellow students who wanted to exploit
the sound of live FM broadcasts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. With encouragement from
Major Edwin Armstrong, inventor of FM, and M.I.T. lab staff, he co-founded Acoustic Research in
1952. Here, Henry helped co-invented the revolutionary AR1 acoustic suspension loudspeaker,
which forever changed the way audio was reproduced. In 1957 he went on to co-found KLH where
he introduced audio enthusiasts to the Model Six loudspeaker, Model Eight FM table radio, and
the Model 11 portable phonograph. Ten years later at Advent, he designed one of the first projec-
tion televisions (which earned him an Emmy Award), along with one of the first consumer cassette
decks utilizing Dolby B noise reduction**. After continuing projection television work at Kloss Video,
Henry co-founded Cambridge SoundWorks in 1988 along with Tom DeVesto. In 2000, at the age
of 70, Henry emerged from retirement to once again team-up with DeVesto to produce the original,
critically acclaimed Model One mono table radio.
