Product Insights
The Model Two Digital Speaker by Tivoli Audio, from the Henry Kloss lineage with a retro-futuristic design and luxury hotel pedigree, delivers a warm, vocal-forward sound signature with punchy bass and smooth treble via a bi-amplified 15W/5W active crossover system achieving 94 dB SPL, controlled by a single tactile knob for power, volume, and source, housed in a real walnut veneer cabinet with an anodized aluminum grille and rear port bass extension to 60 Hz, offering low-latency Bluetooth for lip-synced video, multi-room grouping via AirPlay 2 and Google Cast, and a vintage aesthetic reminiscent of a classic radio tuner, but trades off stereo pairing, EQ, voice assistant, and app control, requires AC power for indoor use only, and incurs a 25-second Wi-Fi reconnect after full power-off.
Verified claims
- Design
- Henry Kloss lineage; retro-futuristic design with a sleek, modern, minimal, room-friendly form; luxury hotel pedigree.
- Control knob
- Single tactile 3-in-1 multifunctional dial controls power, volume, and source.
- Cabinet construction
- Real walnut veneer over polycarbonate core; grille is anodized aluminum.
- Sound
- Warm, vocal-forward signature with punchy bass and smooth treble; no EQ.
- Volume behavior
- Punchy at moderate volumes; bass-dominant above 60%; clean up to 94 dB SPL.
- Vintage aesthetic
- The single analogue-feeling dial recalls classic hi-fi separates and the tactile knob feel of early Tivoli radios.
- Soundstage
- At maximum volume, the speaker's 94 dB max SPL filled a 4x4m office to uncomfortably loud levels.
- Expandability
- Supports multi-room grouping via AirPlay 2 and Google Cast, with no stated limit on the number of grouped speakers.
- Indoor use
- Designed for indoor use only; no weather resistance rating.
- Cultural cachet
- Tivoli products have been adopted by Ritz-Carlton and Ace Hotels, Supreme collaborations, and fashion exhibitions; the Model Two Digital inherits that design pedigree.
- Operation
- After Google Home setup, daily streaming works without a required proprietary app; the speaker uses a fixed, warm DSP curve.
- Amplification
- Bi-amplified 20 W system splits 15 W to the 3.5-inch full-range driver and 5 W to the 0.75-inch tweeter; it achieves 94 dB max SPL and wide treble dispersion.
- Bass response
- Rear port extends bass to 60 Hz; orientation alters bass emphasis; inert cabinet reduces coloration.
- Bluetooth latency
- Low Bluetooth latency ensures lip-synced video playback.
- Finish options
- The three finishes are part of Tivoli's Audio Art Generation line, marrying mid-century heritage with modern interior design.
- Placement
- Indoor-use only, always plugged; full power-off incurs 25s Wi-Fi reconnect.
- Controls
- No voice assistant or user-adjustable EQ; daily control uses the Google Home setup and native streaming apps rather than a required proprietary companion app.
- Wi-Fi
- A full power-off forces a roughly 25-second Wi-Fi reconnect on startup; leaving the speaker in standby avoids the delay and keeps streaming instant-on.
- Streaming protocols
- The speaker streams over Wi-Fi via Google Chromecast built-in and AirPlay 2, adds Bluetooth 5.2 with low-latency video playback, and includes a 3.5 mm auxiliary input; it supports multi-room playback with other Google Cast and AirPlay 2 speakers.
- Cabinet construction
- The cabinet is real walnut veneer over a polycarbonate core, not solid wood; the grille is anodized aluminum.
- Dimensions and weight
- The speaker measures 5 x 10 x 6 inches (12.25 x 25.25 x 15.75 cm) and weighs 4.9 lb (2.2 kg).
- Mono sound
- The Model Two Digital is a mono speaker: one 3.5-inch full-range driver and one 0.75-inch tweeter produce a single channel, so the three grilles are aesthetic rather than additional drivers.
- Bluetooth multipoint
- Bluetooth 5.2 holds one source at a time; multipoint is not implemented, so switching phones or tablets means re-pairing rather than leaving several devices queued.
- Casting behavior
- With Google Cast, the speaker pulls the stream directly from the service, so playback continues through phone calls or if the phone leaves the house and doesn't drain the phone's battery.
- Included accessories
- No remote is included; the box contains the speaker, power supply, and quick-start guide, so controls beyond the front knob are handled from a phone or tablet.
- Subwoofer output
- There is no subwoofer output; the rear connections are a 3.5 mm aux input and a USB-C service port, and the sound signature is factory-tuned rather than user-adjustable.
- Included feet
- The included stick-on feet raise and decouple the cabinet; a reviewer measured a noticeable jump in low-end impact and clarity once they were fitted.

Streaming your music over Wi-Fi at home
Connect this speaker to your home Wi-Fi through Google's Home app, and it shows up automatically in the device lists on Spotify and Tidal, or in the AirPlay menu on an iOS device, so you can stream your favourite music from the services you already use. Chromecast and AirPlay 2 are built in, plus a 3.5 mm auxiliary input for wired sources. There is no companion app or EQ adjustment, and a full power-off means waiting about 25 seconds for it to reconnect to Wi-Fi when you wake it up.[2,4,8]
Watching short-form videos with synced Bluetooth audio
Stream sound from your phone over Bluetooth 5.2 while scrolling videos on TikTok or Instagram Reels. A reviewer found the speaker's low Bluetooth audio latency keeps the sound in step with the picture, which they found great for watching short-form clips. It also supports streaming your favourite music over Bluetooth alongside Wi-Fi, Chromecast, and AirPlay 2.[1,8]
Link the speaker with others in a multi-speaker setup
This speaker can be connected to other speakers running Google Cast or AirPlay 2, so you can play audio across multiple connected speakers. Note that it does not support stereo pairing, so it cannot be paired with a second unit as a dedicated left-right stereo pair.[4,8]
Run everything from one knob
A single rotary knob at the front of the speaker controls power, volume, and switching between input sources. Reviewers describe the knob as a simple, intuitive way to power the speaker on and off, swap inputs with a quick press, and adjust volume without navigating a screen or menu.[1,2,3,9]
Orient it to fit your space and tune the sound
This compact tabletop speaker can be placed upright or laid flat, so you can position it on a shelf, side table, or counter where it fits best. Per a reviewer, laying it flat delivers a fuller, more solid sound with strong lows, while standing it vertically shifts the balance toward the mids, highs, and vocals—so the orientation you choose shapes how it sounds in the room.[2,3,4,6,9]
Listening to music in a small room
This speaker suits everyday music listening in compact spaces like an office or small living room, where reviewers describe warm, full-bodied sound at moderate volumes, robust bass despite its small cabinet, and voice reproduction so convincing that one reviewer felt the singers were in the room. It also plays plenty loud in a small room, though two reviewers note the mid-range can lose some warmth at high volumes.[1,2,4,5,8]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Model Two Digital Speaker: Choose this if you want a compact tabletop speaker (about 12.3 by 25.2 by 15.8 cm, 2.2 kg) with versatile streaming over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.2, Chromecast, AirPlay 2, and a 3.5 mm aux input, wrapped in a wood-and-aluminum design that can sit horizontally or vertically to suit your space. Reviewers describe warm, full-bodied sound at moderate volumes with robust bass and wide high-frequency projection, and setup through Google's Home app takes only minutes. Note it has no app, EQ adjustment, or stereo pairing support, and reviewers found some mid-range warmth drops off as the volume climbs, plus a roughly 25-second Wi-Fi reconnect after a full power-down.[1,2,3,4,5,8] | Model One Tabletop Radio: Choose this if you want a simple, compact AM/FM tabletop radio: it has just three knobs, a 5:1 ratio tuning dial that makes zeroing in on stations easy, and a tuner said to bring clarity even to weak stations. It pairs a single 3-inch mono driver with a handmade wood veneer cabinet designed as an acoustically inert housing, plus an auxiliary input and included FM antenna for other sources. Note that sound is mono only, and one owner reported that dust caused noticeable frequency drift in tuning despite otherwise great sound.[7,10,11,12,13] | Pal Bluetooth Radio Speaker: Choose this if you want a compact, weather-resistant portable speaker for patios, travel, or everyday listening, with Bluetooth streaming, an FM tuner, and an auxiliary input, plus a stereo headphone output. Its simple three-knob design covers radio, source, and volume, and the rechargeable battery is rated for a minimum of 14 hours with faster USB-C charging. Note that this generation has no AM band and analog-only FM tuning, and one reviewer said they moved the unit about a foot closer to get a better radio signal.[14,15,16,17,18] |
