Audio Features
Stereo Speakers: The Tivoli Audio iYiYi high-fidelity stereo system
for iPod features two 3.0", video-shielded, full-range drivers for great stereo
sound.

enclosure with two rear-firing port for added efficiency and bass response. The
bass ports also double as internal heat ventilation.

control knob which operates the volume level for the unit's stereo speakers and
headphone output. The volume display range is 0-30.
Headphone Output: The iYiYi high-fidelity stereo system for iPod is
equipped with a front-panel 3.5mm headphone output for connecting a set of
stereo headphones for private listening. Connecting headphones will mute the
unit's stereo speakers.
Record Output: The Tivoli Audio iYiYi's rear-panel 3.5mm record output
(fixed) lets you record music from the high-fidelity stereo system to a
connected tape-deck or CD recorder. You can also use the iYiYi's record output
to the connect the system to your home entertainment system.
Placement: Place the stereo speaker system on a solid, flat, stable
surface. The system is shielded and may be used in close proximity to a computer
monitor or television. Placing the iYiYi sound system in a bookcase, corner, or
flush against a wall or other flat surface will restrict the output of the bass
ports, yielding an unnatural bass sound.

and AM antennas provide good reception in most applications. Locating the stereo
system near a window will provide better reception. The unit is also equipped
with an external FM antenna connection and comes with an external FM wire
antenna to provide better reception.
- Internal/External FM Antenna: An alternative to the
tabletop clock radio's built-in FM antenna, is the supplied indoor external
FM wire antenna or optional FM dipole antenna (sold separately). Also,
connecting your cable television 75-ohm coaxial cable to the radio's
external FM connection may provide clearer local FM reception; although you
must usually request activation of this service through your cable company.

Model Three itself to align the internal AM antenna for improved reception.
There is no external AM antenna connection.
