Hello all I’m new here. I’m looking for a good pair of closed back headphones for my IPhone X since I listen to music on it a lot. I’m not a audiophile but I do enjoy good quality headphones. I’ve been looking at the meze 99 classics but I’m still unsure if I want to pull the trigger on it or not especially after the padding changes. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. I listen to a lot of Rock, HipHop, EDM, Jazz.

$400 max.

You might be able to find a pair of Denon AH-D7200 for that, though it's a stretch.

All I can find online is $999-800 too much for me. Another other recommendations?

Oh, sorry -- to be clear, I meant used.

If anywhere still have the Focal Elegia for $400 that's a solid option, though may need some EQ depending on your preference. Note: Plan to buy a new cable pretty much immediately if you get the Elegia, the stock cable is /comically bad/, made of like, stiff lamp cord with a well documented tendency to fail in just a few weeks for many people.
