Hi! Received this in the mail about an hour ago and I can't speak highly enough of this portable, if good quality audio in a portable is what you're after then take a look - or should that be take a listen - to the Tivoli iPal radio.
The radio doesn't have any bells and whistles to sell to you, just 3 controls on the front - on/off/am/fm selector, tuning and volume are presented on the front with a 2.5 inch speaker below. On the back are sockets for stereo headphones, an aux-in jack and the power supply input. Don't let the very basic deceive you however, the sound out of that mono 2.5 inch speaker has to be heard to be believed. The AM band has reasonable sensitivity and should cope in most listening situations, the sensitivity level didn't come as a surprise to me as the band width on Am is rather wide thus the better quality audio so if you know any good sounding radio stations then this radio will provide the enjoyable sound you've possibly been missing. FM is excellent both for good quality audio sound and sensitivity. The iPal is a blast! through headphones, possibly one of the best portable units I've heard through headphones, highs on the AM band are clear and the FM band sounds like a good quality Hi-Fi tuner. The iPal has an internal rechargeable battery which will give you 17 hours of listening, that's pretty good given how the radio sounds and how loud it can go. The iPal measures around 4 inches high by about 3 wide so its perfect as a bedside radio. Rubber flaps cover the sockets on the back making the radio weather proof for those outdoor excursions. ********** Dane Trethowan Skype: grtdane12 Phone US (213) 438-9741 Phone U.K. 01245 79 0598 Phone Australia (03) 9005 8589 Mobile: +61400494862 Fax +61397437954 To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
