If you are operating on a limited budget, in my opinion the Juno Stage is one of the best values on the used market today. Its lightweight which makes it great for gigging and sounds as good as I have heard for a synth in this price range. The action feels nice and is definitely acceptable, has velocity sensitive keys with my only complaint being is that there is no after touch. One other thing I would like to mention is its straight forward easy to use interface. There are a lot of awesome synths out there that are so hard to use that you need to be a full time musician to get ahead of the learning curve, not so with the Juno Stage, in a few minutes you will have the basic functions figured out and selecting the voices you want to play is as easy as it gets. Though a bit pricey there are a number of user install-able sound expansion cards available which is nice if you want to lay down the cash. Again for what these units are selling for on the used market you will be hard pressed to find a better synth for the money. Mack-TXRead full review

I added a Juno ds to my rig and I'm very happy with it. Lots of great sounds, easy to use and even though it isn't a sampler, you can load samples from an sd card. I make my samples on an Akai MPX 16 and then dump them in the Juno. I use an RD-800 for pianos but if I ever wanted to leave that heavy beast at the house the Juno pianos are excellent. My only complaint is that the arpeggiator kind of sucks. I previously had a Korg Karma so I'm a bit spoiled when it comes to that but overall a great keyboard in a super lightweight package. Pianos, Strings, Synths, Horns and lots of random acoustic and "World Music" or ethnic sounds are all great. Hammonds could be better but that depends on your taste and what kind of tones you're after.

My regular keyboard is a Roland RD700NX, which I love, but carrying it is like carrying a boat anchor. The Juno Stage is a good compromise. It only weighs 20 lbs, has 76 keys, and the sound bank is better than average for the money.
This keyboard can do so much s person could get lost in the manual but everything is explanined and easy to under stand.I'm lokkin forward to working with it on my recordings.
I wanted a do all keyboard to take to local jams and open mics. After adding 2 SRX cards the keyboard does a respectable job. I played for 6 hours on it with little strain, excellent feel and it sounds excellent in stereo.
