I'd take a look at some MrSpeakers Mad Dogs. I don't own them myself, but based on reviews, they deliver excellent performance, and they are closed cans.
 
Also, I'd browse through the 'for sale' forum here if there is anyone who happens to sell off some higher end cans that fit in your price range.

Pardon if you're tried this already - have you thought about trying some with an amp?  I don't like the hassle of an amp since I mostly listen with my laptop.  However, I had a cheap little ART headphone amp (ART HeadAmp 4 to be specific) a while back that made a great deal of difference in the low end extension with a number of my headphones (namely, Grado SR 60s). 
 
I eventually gave it to a buddy who likely treated it badly and it broke.  I think it lasted for 2 years of gentle use and about 2-3 of abuse.

Seriously.....follow the one #@?! rule with a finger icon...bolded and in red at the top of this page. This site has rules...not many but they have a purpose. You have another thread and it was linked at the top of this page.

That's what the majority of headfiers say, but most of them have never even heard them. Trust me, if you're after nice bass, give them a try. They don't have as much bass as say a M100 by VModa, but the midrange and highs are better. I think the bass is better quality too. Doesn't hurt to audition them.
