The HD-650 is a good choice for trance and as all-around headphones. The HD-600 is more neutral and balanced, but you'll probably enjoy the darker, smoother sound of the HD-650. For me, the K-701 is mostly an acoustics/vocals headphone, like the K-501 and K-1000, though I feel it falls short of them.
You will need something other than a portable to drive the HD-650. Tubes are popular here (and deservedly so) but for trance and similar, you'll probably want solid state. The Gilmore Lite has good synergy, but browse the For Sale Forum and see if you can't find a bargain.
