Tivoli Audio Model Three Bluetooth Clock Radio with USB

Overview

The Tivoli Audio Model Three BT pairs a real wood cabinet with the alarm clock radio you actually want beside your bed: reliable AM/FM reception, Bluetooth 5.0 streaming for your phone or tablet, and a USB port to keep that device charged overnight.

Setting the time and alarm uses the same analog controls Tivoli has relied on for decades — a rear Time Set button and a front alarm thumbwheel — so there's no menu to dig through in the dark. A built-in AA battery keeps the clock and alarm running through a power outage.

Round out the connections with a 3.5mm auxiliary input, headphone output, and REC OUT/MIX IN jacks, and the Model Three BT works equally well as a bedside radio, a compact desk speaker, or a line-level source feeding a larger system.

Simcoe Audio Video Insight

We like the Model Three BT for anyone who wants a genuine wake-up radio rather than a smart speaker with an alarm bolted on — the physical thumbwheel and Time Set button are quick to use without a phone in hand, and the Bluetooth and USB charging cover modern day-to-day habits without adding complexity.

Why the Model Three BT Stands Out

Bluetooth 5.0 Wireless Streaming

Stream music, podcasts, or audiobooks from your phone or tablet directly to the Model Three BT's full-range driver.

Built-In USB Charging Port

A rear USB port charges a compatible phone or tablet overnight without an extra charging brick on your nightstand.

Analog Alarm Clock with Thumbwheel Set

Set your wake-up time with the classic aluminum alarm thumbwheel, plus a 20-minute sleep timer and snooze button on top of the cabinet.

AM/FM Tuner with External Antenna Input

Pulls in local AM and FM stations, with a switch to use the included telescoping antenna or connect an external one for better reception.

Real Wood Veneer Cabinet

Finished in genuine wood veneer for the understated, furniture-grade look Tivoli radios are known for.

Multiple Audio Connections

3.5mm auxiliary input, headphone output, REC OUT for recording or feeding a preamp, and MIX IN for a second source, plus a SUB OUT for an optional Tivoli subwoofer.

Battery-Backed Clock

A single AA battery keeps the clock and alarm running through a power outage, so you won't wake up to a blinking display.

Buyer's Guide

Who It's For

  • Bedside listeners who want a dependable alarm clock radio with Bluetooth and USB charging built in.
  • AM/FM loyalists who want strong tuner performance in a compact, good-looking cabinet.
  • Anyone upgrading a nightstand radio who wants real wood styling instead of a plastic smart speaker.

How It Compares

The Model Three BT shares its Bluetooth streaming and wood cabinet with the Model One BT, but adds an alarm clock, USB charging port, and Sleep/Snooze functions the Model One BT doesn't have — trading the Model One BT's tuning dial simplicity for automated wake-up features geared toward bedside use.

Tivoli Audio Model Three Bluetooth Clock Radio with USB FAQs

How do I pair my device with the Tivoli Audio Model Three BT via Bluetooth?

To pair your device with the Model Three BT:

Turn the radio to the Auxiliary position to power on Bluetooth.
Enable Bluetooth on your device.
Select "Tivoli Bluetooth" from the list of available devices.
If prompted, enter the PIN "0000".
Once connected, you can stream music wirelessly.
For detailed instructions, refer to the user manual.

Can I charge my smartphone or tablet using the USB port on the Model Three BT?

Yes, the Model Three BT features a USB port that allows you to charge your devices, such as smartphones and tablets, while listening to music.

How can I improve AM reception on the Model Three BT?

For the best AM reception, try rotating the radio itself to find the clearest signal, and keep it away from computers, TVs, and other electronics that can cause interference. An optional AM wireless antenna can also help in weaker signal areas, and nearby metal surfaces or buildings with concrete, steel, or aluminum siding may reduce reception strength.

What should I do if the clock isn't keeping the proper time?

The Model Three BT's analog clock runs on a single AA battery, which also keeps the clock and alarm running during a power outage. If the clock isn't keeping accurate time, check the battery first — Tivoli recommends checking it annually and replacing it with a fresh 1.5V AA alkaline battery if the clock stops or drifts. To reset the time, use the Time Set button on the rear panel: press and release briefly to advance the hands in small increments, or press and hold to advance continuously.
