Looking for a pair of closed back headphones for around $200, or less. Between $150-200. 
 
Just something I can use during late night listening and not disturb anyone. 
 
Needs to be good for classical music, I like to listen classical late at night.

Don't really like the Soundmagic HP100's but thanks for the suggestion. 
 
Anyone own the Audio Technica M50x? Looking like a strong contender for me right now.

brainwavz hm5, which is a clone of the fischer audio fa-003. It's a very neutral phone with a good soundstage relative to other closed cans. give it a look.
 
Also, any shure headphones are great too. As well as the krk kns8400.
 
I would personally go for the dt770. Just dont pick the 80 ohm version, and you get one of the best closed headphones <$200 ever.
