HF-1 are my definite main headphones since I'm mostly listening to metal. However, I enjoy my DT 880s for Opeth, Porcupine Tree and such.

Lets see,

Used Senn HD600 for about $200
Used Grado RS-2 for about $400
Used AKG K701 for about $275
Used AKG K340 for about $$$

I like the K701 with my HF-1.

Yeah, that's the only problem with the K340.

My Headphile CD3ks complement my HF-1s nicely. I can see myself adding another recabled HD650 back into the mix though. I think that would be a nice ménage à trois

I think AKGs are radically different from the HF-1. Take a look at the K-501, K-601 and K-701.

Out of all the headphones I own, I must say that the HD650 is the most unlike the HF1.

Then again, what headphone setup is complete without the HD650?

Mine.

I must agree with Philodox there, the HD-650 is no doubt a good phone, definitely the best of the Sennheisers, but it still has that signature Sennheiser darkness to it, which I don't much care for. If I ever were to get a Senn, it would be a 650 (or maybe a 595), but I have to say that the AKG sound appeals much more.

However, they are both very good counterparts to the HF-1. It just depends on what sound signature you like more at this point.
