Unless you have (or plan on getting) a good dedicated headphone amp, go with the Sennheisers. The HiFi HE-500s are tough to drive, and they really require a headphone amp to sound their best.
Sonically, I think the HiFi headphones are better, but the Sennheisers are close enough that I could be happy with either.
