Yamaha CS80

The closest thing is imo the CS70m. You lose the velocity sensitivity 
and some other features, but in all it's a great synth with the same 
VCO, VCF etc as the CS-80 + you get the 2 vco/voice, which you don't get 
with the 60 or 50. I have the 60,70 and 80, so I know what I'm talking 
about :)

Check out these excellent demos:
