Ok, I love, and have, an m50x. But I don't think it should be part of these types of drops. Why? They already are at an amazing price just from the get-go. But they ain't perfect. The m50x has its problems, mostly it's clamping and heat generation of the muffs (really, sound IS amazing for its price). Thus I rather see a 'premium' closed headset in a drop, than an already reasonable priced one. I'd also prefer to see drops separated by closed and open headsets. They are so fundamentally different, that I don't think you can put them both in a poll like this. My 2 cents.
Grados get no love on Massdrop?

I think Grados are already a bang for the buck. Grado cans have already traded build quality to become cheap, there is nothing more to compromise.
For those on the m50x bandwagon, I recommend jumping ship to the Takstar Pro 82 bandwagon. It's a tuned mdr1a for less cost.
why are people voting for HD6XXs? you can buy it right now!! its been available for sale perpetuately for months now.
I'm still somewhat new here... Whenever special, Massdrop-edition versions of headphones are made, are the changes from community requests, or simply ideas that Massdrop and the manufacturer decided? I ask because I can't help but wish for velour headband padding on most of these headphones (rather than pleather, which will eventually flake off)...

The polls can only suggest MD to work on cans with manafacturer, the changes however depend on MD only.
I actually hate the fact people reccomend m50x they lack so much and are simply overated.

It's because they are what Beats are. A distorted mess. The M40X is much cheaper and much better. Let's help people be audiophiles. Or just let them get whatever they think will make them happy.
No is not the hd 6xx or 650 should not even be compare that over shilled garabage. Id rather take mono retros vmod lp or a logitech surround sound and be content to those for under 100$ compared to the m50x are cheaply made, bad sounding headphones.. They will never live up to the hype and are better off being avoided.
owning m50x's i'm surprised anybody actually wants them

Never underestimate the power of slick marketing. My stepson believes the Dr. Dre hype. He is convinced that they are the best sounding headphones across the range, in spite of the fact that he has never owned them. Dr Dre could put a headphone cord on a turd and people would happily spend big dollars for it.
