Hey Everyone,
The AKG K712 has just been launched! Here's a link to the drop for your top voted option:

Thanks for your votes, keep them coming!
We're doing our best to get the HD650s back but there's no clear timeline at this point.
Hop on the amazon deal or get some used on the head-fi classifieds. I bought all my big headphones used and saved a lot of money that way.
Hoping the Senn650 will win. Also, the Beyer 880 600ohm is a better phone than the 990. Sometimes, the higher model number is hardly the end of the story guys...
The thing is that you can't really say that one is better than the other.. The 880 is more analytical and flatter than the 990. From what i have read the 990 has peaks in the lows and highs. The 990 is also fully open whereas the 880 only is semi-open. It all depends on your preference.
The ATH-M50's REALLY don't belong on this list. They're wonderful headphones for their pricerange, but they aren't in the same league as any of the headphones here. I recommend it be removed, if that is possible.
It is funny that you have no control whatsoever in your poll after you have started it. Someone could have added a toaster and i couldn't remove it. If i had option to delete product, many products in this poll would be gone.
I'm going to agree with the other responses here. The ATH-M50's don't belong here. I'd rather buy a pair of superlux tbh. I want some high end senny's please! Or I'll take the K712 thanks!
Think we could flag the ATH-M50s? Getting tired of seeing people who can't think for themselves vote for those and those only.
EDIT: Congratulations, folks. You've spammed another poll with the ATH-M50 bandwagon. Now Massdrop will be able to get M50xs for like, $5 each.
Not only is that not high end or a good value, it's not even a headphone. It's a head/set/.
It's my hope that Massdrop will disregard ATH-M50 bandwagoners. I'd go as far to say that the internet's darling ATH-M50s are more overrated than Beats.
