Y'all -

Hate to say this, but I, too, have a Tivoli Model One welded to my  
local NPR station.

Believe me, I'm no audio snob despite the fact that I go through  
phases of building custom audio gear for part of my income.  I gotta  
say that the Tivoli has a very good tuner section, but the cheap pots  
& switches are no joy and the spectral response is heavily weighted  
down by a low-mid resonance that seems contrived to provide a fake  
sense of warmth & heft.
