So I'm getting the Fidelio x2's but I want to also buy a pair of closed back headphones under 400 with a lot of bass(clean however) for the circumstances when I'm not in a quiet area.
Thanks :grinning:

If you can get past their looks, the NAD VISO HP50 would be one possibility.

Before you buy a closed headphone, if you haven't had any experience with them, I suggest that you try listening to one for a while and see if your ears overheat. I can no longer use closed circumaural(around the ear) headphones as my ears become uncomfortably hot. For that reason I use IEMs(in the ear canal isolating earphones) when I want isolation. Make sure not to use an isolating earphone or isolating headphone when it is dangerous to do so, such as when you are walking around outdoors, and will be crossing traffic intersections.

  I'm going to be using the headphones when I'm around my family and not at my desktop (i'm 14)

Have you considered using IEMs(in the ear canal isolating earphones)? Do you want something with exaggerated bass, or something with bass that sounds natural? There are many choices for IEMs with strong bass, some with strong bass that sounds natural, and some with extra bass that sounds exaggerated.
