I have a pair of HD650s and used to own a pair of MS2i's. Those ended up not being my cup of tea, but the ATH headphones I did pick up are nice as well.
When I started frequenting the forum, I was seeing the name of Ultrasone absolutely everywhere. As for popularity, it all depends on who you ask. I'm guessing you mean us, those on Head-Fi. As for the FOTM, I'm not really sure.
I remember several years ago the HD 650 was the absolute king of headphones on here.
Grado has always been quite popular among some but recenlty their popularity has really been standing out to me so I voted for the RS-1 category. I don't think they RS-1 category needs to be separate from the SR-60 one though.
Definitely more hype for Stax recently too. Main difference from the Grado following though is that the Stax deserve it
[size=xx-small](kidding... all about personal preference I know. I respect that others like Grado. Personally I love the SR 404 though and can't really get too into the Grado headphones I have heard.)[/size]
