Advantages: Sound quality, Clear LCD, MP3 playback on CD player Disadvantages: LCD overly bright in standby for use in bedroom.
...Looks nice and decent sound quality. Pretty easy to use and reception seems pretty good. LCD is clear and bright and gives all the information you'd expect/want about current station.
It plays MP3 tracks from CDs according to the manual (this isn't a feature I've ever used - so I can't comment on its effectiveness).
The only drawback is that even when in standby - the LCD gives off a fair amount of ambient light - sufficient to be annoying in a bedroom when you've switched the lights off to try and get some sleep. (You can turn it off at the back with a switch - but then it forgets the time and obviously can't be used as a clock radio!) So it's probably more suited to a lounge....

Advantages: Great sound quality, DAB enabled Disadvantages: few
...I recently purchased this audio system after being recommended by a friend to its amazing sound quality and its DAB enabled radio. This enables better sound quality and amazingly information to be shown on the LCD screen about the radio station e.g. Station telephone no., signal level, date and time and also any extra information that the radio station chooses.
Not only is it a rado, it also has an amaing quality CD reader, with this system you can adjust the bass, and treble, set a timer -that can be used as an alarm for the radio or cd to start and using the remote control the system provides ultimate comfort while changing tracks/stations while keeping your comfy lifestyle. The system also allows you to create your own playlist, inn which you can choose the tracks you want to listen to off an inserted CD and then you can repeat...

Poppy picanto Review ofMinistry of Sound MOSCA099by
poppypicanto
Advantages: fits like a glove, looks smart, deep bass and sound qaulity. Disadvantages: text too small to read, remote controll can be hard to use
...I bought this product from Argos for £149.99. Firstly let me say that this wasn't what I wanted to buy initally, as there are other stereos around with higher spec (eg, much larger screens of the touch type, and bluetoothe enabled), all aimed at the same price. So why did I buy this unit then? A lot of other dvd stereos have slightly over sized heads and getting them to fit into the dash isn't as easy as it may first appear. On my particular car, it's not possible to fit due to riased sections of my dash, however, the MOSCA099 fits like a glove. Anyway, I think you get the picture, so what about the stereo. Turning on the Ministry of Sound MOSCA099 reveals a smartly blue illumination dials, followed by a clear vibrant 2.5" screen. On loading a data cd (filled with mp3's) a smart menu appears allowing you to select your chosen song...

At first, I was a little bit wary of purchasing this album as I am not normally a fan of 'commercial' dance music as I can sometimes find it rather cheesy and become easily bored. I decided to take a chance on this after hearing it advertised on the... more
Anyone who likes Marylin Manson or most of the nu-metal scene owes a lot to Ministry and the 'Psalm 69' album in particular. Along with 'The Downward Spiral' by Nine Inch Nails this album was responsible for bringing industrial music into the mainstream... more
