Yep, this question appears periodically, I answered it thoroughly several times (since June 2007), so this time I'll say birefly: the difference is too big to think about HD555's.

for people that don't care about their difference in refinement and want more bass, the 555s might be the better can though due to its slightly heavier midbass. It does not show on headrooms graphs but I hear my 555s to be more boosted in the 80hz region compared to the 595. The Boosted bass on the 555 can sometimes be good with the ipod unamped but with my headfive, it seems to emphasize it a little and is enough to bother me.
