Radios

Most tabletop radios from the year 2000 are long gone. The Tivoli Audio Model One is still in production, largely unchanged, because it was engineered by a man who had already spent forty years figuring out how to make radios sound better than they had any right to. It remains one of the rare pieces of consumer electronics where “handmade wood cabinet” isn’t marketing language — the tuner inside is doing real, old-fashioned engineering work most modern radios never bother with.
