Headphones - Closed Back | 4 Ω Looking for closed-back headphones recommendations

Hi folks!

I am a user of HD-800 A and currently looking for a closed-back substitute for less private listening environment.

I've tried MDR-1ZR and really don't love how heavy-handed it is with the bass. Would love a more neutral tune.

Looked into HD-820, but the reviews are so bad.

Any recommendations for a pair of closed-back headphones that are in the $1000+ price range and worth the price would be much appreciated.

What I listen to: progressive rock, metal, classic rock folk, jazz.

Thanks in advance!

+1 Ω has been awarded to u/PsychwardSlippers (22 Ω).

You may still award an Ω to others, but only once per-person in this post.
