I have Sennheiser HD595 and the denon 2k. When I bought the Denons I intended to sell the sennheisers. I mostly listen to Rock, Rap etc so I figured the Denons would be a step up. When I got the Denons I was more than pleased but... its a totally different sound. Depending on the band, song, sound your looking for, it varies which headphone sounds best. Disturbd, Linkin Park, some Red Hot Chillie Peppers and all rap sound better on the denons. however Aerosmith, Journey, some Red Hot Chillie Peppers, and music concentrating more on vocals sounds better on the Sennheisers. I decided to keep the Sennheisers because I couldn't let go of the different sound they produced. If I had to pick one I'd say the Denons, but that is only a slight advantage because I can be sort of a basshead. If you have the chance Id test them out before you decide which one to buy, it depends on what you listen to and what sound your looking for. Either one is perfect but in totally different ways.

I'm not sure about Denon never used it but Senheiser HD 598 is something that I wouldn’t buy for Rock as it doesn’t gives sound I expect from it.
