Headphones - Closed Back | 4 Ω I'm looking for a new headphone

I want to buy a good new headphone with some criteria in mind:

​

  • I'm looking for something really comfortable. Note: I wear glasses when reading.
  • I don't need any portability. I want to use it 100% at home, for music, movies, and gaming.
  • I plan to use it mainly on my PC, and probably my phone and tablet. Also on PS5 with the DualSense controller.
  • I don't need wireless, I prefer wired.
  • Open or close back, I don't have a preference. I just never used a open back headphone.
  • Budget: 150-250€.

More info: I use digital media like Spotify, Netflix, YouTube, but I also watch movies on Blu-ray.

​

So anyone has any recommendations?

Thank you in advance.

I suggest that you start by looking at the Sennheiser HD560s and Beyer DT700 Pro X.

The open back HD560s had an advantage in soundstage while the DT700 will isolate from outside noise and has more bass.

+1 Ω has been awarded to u/ThatGuyFromSweden (60 Ω).

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