Contents

Tivoli Audio manufactures and markets award-winning audio products known for their high-quality sound, simple functionality, and unique yet timeless design.

History

The company was founded in Massachusetts by Henry Kloss, an audio engineer, and Tom DeVesto, an entrepreneur. Their first product, the Model One, was designed to receive FM radio signals in congested urban locations and distant or low-power stations, as Kloss noted; the mid-60s wave of Japanese radios struggled to do this.[ citation needed ] Kloss passed away in 2002, but the company continued to operate. By 2006, Tivoli Audio was selling products in over 30 countries.ref name="Bell2023WP" />

The company has had partnerships with Ritz-Carlton, Marriott Hotels, and Ace Hotels.[ citation needed ] It also partnered with Supreme in 2018 for a limited-edition model.[ citation needed ]

In 2016, Tivoli Audio launched the ART wireless collection with features such as Wi-Fi streaming and Spotify Connect. As of 2019, [3] Tivoli Audio opened a flagship showroom and shop on Boston's Newbury Street.

As of 2024, Paul De Pasquale serves as the company's CEO. [1]

Products

After the Model One, the next decade saw several new releases, such as the PAL (Portable Audio Laboratory), Model Three (Alarm Clock Radio), and the All-In-One Music System. This range of products was sold in Scandinavian DAB+ countries, such as Denmark and Norway following the PAL+ in 2011. In 2016, Tivoli Audio released the ART Collection.[ citation needed ]

Tivoli has collaborated with brands like Coach, Cappellini, Anthropologie, NPR, and Supreme to produce collections.[ citation needed ]
