I've only heard/auditioned the HD595 and I was very impressed with them. Clean & clear slightly warm sound, and they were ultra comfortable.

looooooolllllll

ow by the way i have 1 little Q are the Sony MDR-SA5000 good for ipod without an amp?

You might as well get the HD595. It's arguably the most neutral of the bunch, and will give you a good starting point. From there, you can branch off to where ever your journey takes you.

might help to know what kind of music you listen to and your source. also if isolation is an issue.

 

[fp581]

isolation is not an issue
needs to be portable and rock & pop music

the source is an IPOD G5 or the new on (if i will buy him lol)

No. Not only will you not be able to drive them well, but the 5000's are especially critical of your source and throw is back in your face with no respect. The sound might even be very harsh sounding. You will hear everything wrong with the ipod's sound. I think it especially important to appropriately amp the 5000's.

X2. The 595 is also a good can for pop and rock.

I own all four headphones you mentioned and the iCans too. If you don't need isolation and listen to rock on a portable source I wouldn't spend $250. I'd buy either the Alessandro MS-1's or a used Grado SR225. You could get by for either $100 (MS-1) or about $150 (used SR225) and spend the extra on your choice of ipods.
