Tivoli Audio NetWorks® with FM

When Tivoli Audio CEO Tom DeVesto and his team of engineers set out to create the next generation of home audio, they began with a simple question: What would the ideal radio do? The new Tivoli Audio NetWorks Global Audio System is the answer to that question. Taking advantage of broadcasting over the Internet, NetWorks delivers crystal-clear reception of any radio station, near or far, with no need for a computer. NetWorks allows listeners to tune in to Italian Opera from Milan, rock music from New York City, or any specialty, niche radio station from any location in the world in its native language, and in real time. It also allows access to music stored on PCs from any room in the house through a wireless or Ethernet connection. NetWorks features Tivoli Audio-quality sound as a stand-alone unit, but can be expanded with a stereo speaker, CD player, or subwoofer. And the NetWorks builds upon Tivoli Audio's reputation as a design leader, offering a choice of furniture-quality hardwood cabinets. The result is an elegantly simple, beautifully designed, yet technologically-advanced NetWorks that points to the future of home audio entertainment. NetWorks automatically upgrades its own software, so you always have the most up-to-date version. There's an online community at NetWorks' Global Portal www.networks.tivoliaudio.com where you can connect with other users, get support, and instantly add new stations to your Favorites list. One year warranty. Offered in Walnut/Gold, Cherry/Gold, and Wenge/Gold.

Can't fall asleep
Date: January 27, 2010
The radio works well but the clock leaves a lot to be desired. Tivoli offers only a 20 minute sleep timer, too short for me. So, I keep resetting it and as a result, don't fall asleep as well as I did with my other clock radio.
The display is also pretty bright. It should dim when the room is dark or allow for an adjustment.

I really like this radio
Date: October 31, 2009
The only weak point on this net radio seemed to be that it was useless as a basic radio without a network connection. Not that our network connection goes out often, but having the FM backup is a nice touch.

Love it!
Date: October 28, 2009
This is definetly a plug and play device. I plugged it into my home network, turned it on. Immediately it found my media server and I was able to access all our music literally within a couple of minutes.
Living in Switzerland I love the ability to listen to our favorite US Stations so easily.
And yes, the sound quality is great!

elegant and simple...almost
Date: October 23, 2009
incredible sound as expected from a Tivoli product; initial set-up takes some patience and navigating the screens requires practice, but once up-and-running, opera from Italy is immediately accessible... very impressive.
