Ministry of Sound MOSMP085 MP3 Player

built-in speakers

Persistence from Ministry of Sound will be seen shortly as their latest endorsed player from ALBA electronics, labelled the MOSMP085, will commence sale later this month. In the past not a great deal of commendation has been handed to Ministry of Sound players. The MOSMP085 is not going to blow away all past reputation, but at least the typical features of a digital audio player appear to be accounted for this time.

If the 2-inch TFT display is enough to distract you from the rather bland design, a voice recorder and internal speaker are also included. Format support is certainly nothing to rave about (audio scrapes in with MP3, WMA DRM, and WAV), however six preset equalizer settings and a lyric display function will contribute to the decorative aspect.

As you may expect, there are 5 preloaded Ministry of Sound tracks, plus two free music downloads. Rest assured, this model does have inbuilt memory: 1GB for $90 and 2GB for $100.

Should give the Zen V Plus a run for its money because of the extra .5" of screen space and speaker but idk there's something about this that doesnt pull me in..

Samsung P2

The Samsung P2 has been gaining quite a following lately and rightfully so. If you are looking for something well designed, innovative, and feature packed; you should look into this full touch screen wonder. The Bluetooth feature set is what I find to be the most intriguing, with the ability to tether to your phone to make calls or wirelessly transfer with no restrictions to other P2s. Check out the review or stop by our ever growing P2 forums to get the latest info.
Toshiba Gigabeat T400

The Gigabeat T400 is without a doubt my favorite flash player at the moment. It does have one major setback in that it only comes in a 4GB, shame on you Toshiba. What makes me love this player is it's ultra slick sexy design, very easy- just pick up and use interface, and killer sound quality that would make Cowon users envious. This player is a must buy for anyone who sports a premium set of headphones. Full review to come but you should really just buy one.
SanDisk Sansa Clip

The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.
Cowon iAudio D2

The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.
JAYS q-JAYS

The q-JAYS are great in ear phones. They offer excellent clarity, silky treble, realistic midrange, and a nice bass response. They're comfortable, incredibly tiny, and come with a huge selection of accessories. While they certainly are analytic phones, they're still fun to listen to. The q-JAYS respond well to EQing, and can be tweaked to fit almost anyone's sound preference. Recommended for anyone owning a good sounding player and well encoded audio files. Check out our review.
