The Tivoli SongBook Max is a glorious, quirky, premium piece of audio gear. Arrived yesterday and I’m blown away!! VERY old school feel. mechanical EQ sliders, metal toggle switches, solid and heavy! I delayed buying it for almost 2 years. Now that I own it, the question is why? Truth is - in the world of cheap, disposable consumer electronics, it’s expensive. In the case of the SongBook Max, it’s never been more true that “You get what you pay for”. Price is $600 - on sale right now for $480. The sound quality is outstanding. Powerful, clear, premium sound. The crazy part is that it’s MONO! 1 woofer, 1 mid-range, 1 tweeter. Build quality is exemplary, and the aesthetics are gorgeous. It’s physical art that you can listen to. I heard a quote years ago that I think perfectly sums up the SongBook Max - “When something is thoroughly well done, it often has the air of being a miracle”. A truly outstanding product that I’m overjoyed to own! Tivoli Audio SongBook MAX 50W RMS mono 3-way speaker (woofer, mid, tweeter) FM radio + Aux-in with built-in preamp Analog EQ sliders (bass/mid/treble) 10hr battery | USB-C fast charging Bluetooth 5.3 | IPX4 splash-resistant Retro design with carry handle
Interesting concept. I wonder how many they have sold these last couple of years? I will go look up youtube vids of this now. Out of curiosity
Not sure how well it’s selling. Right now, I feel like it’s one of portable audio’s best kept secrets. I haven’t seen a ton of stuff online about it. The most impressive part of the SongBook Max is the granular vocal details. It’s like 8K on the vocal track.
