Is the HD555 still 'alive and well' in Sennheiser's catalog?

People say the 558's have a brighter sound, the graph shows that they are less rolled off in the highs, otherwise they are virtualy identical.

Not quite.  The HD5X8 series have some pretty significant improvements(sound quality wise) over the HD555.  Here's a link to an article that takes an in depth look at their differences.-http://www.headfonia.com/old-and-new-hd555-hd558-hd598/
