About Tivoli Audio
Tivoli Audio was started by Tom DeVesto with the goal of bringing simple to use, high-quality audio products to the consumer. His long professional association with Henry Kloss includes co-founding Cambridge SoundWorks*. As the CEO and head of research and development at his former company, Tom was responsible for many of the best-selling home entertainment and multi-media products on the market today. He also held senior management positions in product development for both Advent and Kloss Video. Tom is uniquely qualified to introduce Henry Kloss’ designs.
Portable Audio Laboratory designer Henry Kloss (1929-2002) began his long love affair with audio back in the early 1950’s when, as a student at M.I.T., he began building speaker enclosures for fellow students who wanted to exploit the sound of live FM broadcasts of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. With encouragement from the M.I.T. lab staff and Major Edwin Armstrong, the inventor of FM, he co-founded Acoustic Research in 1952. Here, Henry helped develop the revolutionary AR1 acoustic suspension loudspeaker which forever changed the way audio was reproduced. In 1957 he went on to co-found KLH where he introduced audio enthusiasts to the Model Six loudspeaker, Model Eight FM table radio, and Model 11 portable phonograph. Ten years later he founded Advent where, along with great sounding speakers, he produced one of the first projection TVs (which he won an Emmy for) and one of the first consumer cassette decks with Dolby B** noise reduction. Kloss Video entered the picture in 1977. After Kloss Video, Henry co-founded Cambridge SoundWorks in 1988 along with long time associate Tom DeVesto, bringing factory-direct savings in hi-fi and producing the number-one selling multi-media speakers. In 2000, at the age of 70, Henry emerged from retirement to once again team-up with DeVesto to produce the critically acclaimed Model One mono table radio.
