"Here is a very rare synth, that you dont see very often. The ARP Quadra. This one is in beautiful condition, physically. I would rate it a 8.5 out of 10. It is one of the nicest looking Quadras I have seen. The graphics are terrific, the leather sides are nice, with a blemish on the left hand side.(see pics). It will need serviced, as it is not working, ATM."

via this auction

Note the listing does not mention if the individual outs are working, so check to be sure.

"If you're looking you know what this is. On many lists as one of the best sounding synths ever produced. Hugely variable with mountains of parameters to sculpt the sound you are after with full digital recall. If you're looking for the Rolls Royce of synthesizers - you've found one. It functions perfectly and has been babied its whole life - hardly a scratch other than a few on the bottom. Original foot pedal and manual included and will need to be shipped extremely carefully so please contact me for a shipping quote before purchase."

Roland JUNO-106

via this auction

"The JUNO-106 is a very common and widely used analog polysynth. It continues to be one of the most popular analog synths due to its great sound and easy programmability. It was the next major incarnation of the JUNO-series, following the JUNO-60. While it has virtually the same synth engine as the JUNO-60, the 106 added extensive MIDI control making it one of Roland's first MIDI-equipped synthesizers"

The JX-3P was actually the first Roland synth to implement MIDI. It's kind of interesting to think the knob laden Juno-106 came after the JX-3P.
