Juno 106s - New Flickr Shot

Juno 106s? I knew about the HS60 with built in speakers, but didn't realize Roland had a 106s. Anyone know more about this one?

  1. Do you actually own those A-to-Z books you're pimping on your site? :)

  4. Yes I own them. The problem is the books are downstairs and I'm upstairs. I thought about bringing them up, but my 2.5 year old daughter would probably destroy them. So in short, I'm too lazy to run downstairs and check. : )

    Wouldn't that make it the same thing as an HS-60? Or does it not have the HS-60's ability to function as a line level amp?

  6. Here's the scoop. :)

    The HS-60 and Juno-106s are the same.
    The reason they're called something different is that Roland has several marketing divisions.
    The HS-60 is for the Home market division.
    Same as electric pianos, organs, etc.
    The Juno-106 is for the professional division.
    Many instruments are like that for Roland with the same innards, but different panels and names.

  8. The HS-80 (Juno-2 w/speakers) is another example of this and the HS-10 (identical to Juno-1 and does NOT have speakers despite what A-to-Z says)...
