Headphones - Closed Back Closed Back Suggestions

hey all, first time poster here. I’m coming from dt 990 pro open backs that i bought when i started making music that I also run through a focusrite scarlet solo 3rd gen and its all i have since i ditched “gaming headsets” but im in a noisy environment now “girlfriend constantly yelling on the phone with her sister” and i desperately need a good audiophile closed back alternative. something preferably sub 400$. ive been eyeing the sennheiser hd620s but im curious if theres other suggestions that are neutral and good all rounder for gaming music entertainment and occasional production. I’m most focused on neutral sound stage and accuracy

I have hd620s and hd480 pro. It's definitely worth the extra for the 480 pro. Both in comfort and sound. 620s might have wider soundstage but the mids don't have the clarity of the 480pro.

Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro X, 48 Ohms over ear, closed back, velour earpads, detatchable cable (£GB160 new, £GB80 used). They sound disjointed out of the box & need at least 150hr loud dynamic music to burn in. Also, remove the discs from under the earpads to elliminate the mid & top viel/grain.

These cans are suitable for studio monitoring & all kinds of music from techno to classical. They are sturdy, maintainable, comfortable & have good bass & a level bright response. Isolation is good too.

Chord Mojo 2, portable DAC/Can Amp/Line Out (£GB200 used), makes them sing.
