After considerable thought and thanks to the input of everyone at Head-Fi, I have made a list of the "most beautiful looking headphones ever made." You may vote for more than one. I have not included "mods" or custom made headphones. I also know there are several headphones that are not on this list that many people consider beautiful. If your choices are not listed above, the following headphones are on Part l of the poll. Click on the link below to vote for these:

AKG K701/K702
AKG K1000
Audio Technica ATH-W11JPN
Audio Technica ATH-ESW10JPN
Grado HP-1000
Grado RS1
Sony MDR-R10
Sony Qualia 010
Stax SR-007 Omega ll
Ultrasone Edition 7
Now that you've voted, comment on why you made the choices that you did. Why do you think that a certain headphone is the most beautiful ever made? Form, color, shape, fit, finish, ergonomics, build quality, and the use of materials are all examples that make certain headphones more beautiful than others. Please discuss and debate. Also, below are the latest results of both polls combined. If you don't think certain headphones belong on this list, please explain why. If there are any other beautiful headphones that you feel deserve to be on the list, please explain why and if possible, please post pictures.
Here are the top 10 headphones from both polls:
#1 Audio Technica ATH-L3000/L3000G
