fair complaint about Audiogon, violating no guidelines, removed

Many years ago, I did a  "new posting" which was never published. I had recommended Tivoli radios as being a remarkably good sounding with even a few similarities to high-end products. With a stereo Model#3 set-up on either side of my bed including their sub-woofers, jazz recordings on local stations sound outstanding. I still use the radio to this day; of course I have some major components assembled in my LR. I still don't know what line I crossed. Stereophile even reviewed the radio. 

Hi Mitch, the radio I bought has the (older) manual tuner (like the models 1 and 2) and it has remarkable reception. Late at night I get stations that are even More distant. I "later" bought the expensive ($600 retail) model stereo Digital-Tuning
radio with BOTH L+R speakers and subwoofer built in. It also sounds good, but I had to get a dedicated outdoor FM-antenna installed (about $100 plus installation) because the reception was admittedly dreadful with the included T-antenna. AFTER That it almost reached  the same performance as the "basic" models. The #3 is the one with the clock, a ST/Mono switch, a sub-out jack and ST- speaker output. You can also hook up your computer for many more stations. I use a Y-cable so I have TWO subs on either night-stand plus of course the other stereo speaker. It sounds very natural, although Beethoven #5 is a little too challenging (a bit muddled) for a 3.5in. full-range driver and a 5in. subwoofer. But pop, rock, and especially jazz all work well. Also I can't comment on their current models being better or worse. The older models are still available, but I would try to get an unused (NOS) piece.

Dear Mitch2,
I didn't want to say the radio was without its faults. Truth is, the Manual Tuner has one major drawback (in my experience- I'm on my 3rd model over 15 years). Dust and/or wear and tear takes its toll in the form of excess noise when tuning in stations (and in-between, too). By tuning (with the Vol. turned down) back and forth 3-4 times all the way from one end to the other, the noise will dissipate for awhile. But the more you use the tuner the worse it gets. I give my older one away (still works of course) and just go on the internet and get another (for about $100). Of course you have the Internal/Ext.Antenna switch on the back as another option. But maybe you can fix the tuner if you go inside.
