In my experience I would say that electrostats are best for classical music, with STAX obviously as the most prolific manufacturer. You can get a used SR-207 for probably around $300, your budget limit. The only problem is that you would also need an electrostatic amp, which you could get for probably around the same price used (like a STAX SRM-252S), so that pushes you over your initial budget.
As far as dynamic headphones go, the Beyerdynamic DT 880 and DT 990 Pro 250 or 600 ohm versions would also work very well, and I believe you can get either new for less than $300. The Sennheiser HD 600 is also great for classical (it has a very neutral tone) and you can probably get one used for around $300.
