My headphone system seems to always be in a state of flux. Currently it looks like this:

Portable Systems:

Rio Nitrus -> Senn PX-200 - Simple and sweet, easy to grab and go, not the greatest sound quality but good enough for the gym or doing yard work.

TDK Mojo 620 -> Zu Pivot -> Xin Supermini V. 6.2 D Amp -> Etymotic ER-4S - All packed into a Headroom Airbag. This is my "airplane travel" system, sounds great.

Home:

Jolida JD-100 -> HGA Silver Lace -> (soon to arrive) Singlepower PPX3 -> either Senns HD-650 (stock cable) or Beyerdynamic DT250/250 (I agree with Tyson, best closed headphone I've found so far)

I use headphones for late night listening or when resolution and detail is something I want to hear. The Jolida has a pretty good headphone out but I can't wait to get the Singlepower. I had been using a Meta42 amp but the Jolida's headphone out sounds a lot better then the Meta42.

At home I have:

ONEAC 1105 --> Cambridge Azur 640C --> Audiogeek Nitrogen IC's --> Singlepower PPX3 --> Grado RS-1's

Both the Cambridge and Singlepower use Quail powercords.

At work I don't have anything to fancy. Straight out of my computer (nForce 4.13 codec) to a pair of Sony CD1700's.

Senn HD580's, in search of an amp now that my new pre doesn't have a jack.

Just picked up a used Rega Planet 2000, while not a dramatic upgrade over the Cambridge Azur 640C it does add some much welcomed smoothness, richness and depth and you just gotta love that top loading transport, it's just sweet.

My setup:

Micro Seiki MB-15/M-Audio Audiophile 24/96 --> Pioneer SX-450 --> Senn HD595s

I love my HD595s. They are so neutral and detailed, yet a bit warm and much more forward than the normal senn sound. They are the most speaker-like headphones on the market (besides the Beyer DT770 Pros).
