I agree that at $250 they're still my favorite headphone. Probably my favorite under 300 and maybe even up 'til you hit D7000 street price territory.
At the 170 I paid used awhile back I felt they were a steal. People getting them new for 180 is just the best value out there.

At full blown retail price of roughly $250? Hmm, there are only a few sets that can best it in sound quality, none can match its overall bang for the buck factor. At $250 new you can get the Dre Beats, a Grado 225i, possibly a K701 on sale, a Shure 940 and a Beyer DT series of your choosing, AD900 and an Ultrasone Pro 750
None of them are as well rounded or as user friendly as the HD 598. Some might have superior qualities here or there, none of them are the full package except ye' ol' HD 598.
