Roland's greatest synth?

Has this ever been a topic before? Hard to believe if not but I couldn't find it in a search. Just thinking about the 20 or so Roland's I've spent a decent amount if time with and trying to figure out my favourite, anyone else have an opinion. Never used a Jupiter 8 so I can't choose that, tho I'm sure plenty will. What's your thoughts then, what's the best Roland synth, or at least the best you've had your mitts on?

Jupiter 80 for sure! Coz it's like jp8 but can imitate real instruments better, much better.

Having owned a lot of Roland synths, I do think they have really made some wonderful instruments in the past. The V-Synth is certainly up there. You also have to respect the D-50 as well.

My vote would be for the Jupiter-8 which is one of my favorite synths of all time.
