Recommendation for wired closed back, over ear, lightweight.

[amaridev]

Hi,
I am looking for new headphones, but don't know what to buy. I hoped you had some ideas

I basically want something similar sized like the Sonys WH1000-XM4, but with wire. Also closed back with good isolation and not too heavy. I wanted to use them mainly at work on my MacBook or some mobile amp.

I used to have DT1770 Pro, which I liked very much, but were too big and heavy for my taste when used on the go.

The type of music I listen to is a mix of Solo Piano, Jazz, Blues, Rap, HipHop, Chillstep. I also listen at lower volumes, not too loud.

Price range: 100 to 500 Euros. Should be available in Germany.
thanks

The Closed-Back Headphone Thread may give you some ideas also.
Is there a reason you don't want to use XM4 with wires(or wireless)?

My favorite is the AKG K371Pro for portable closed backs, they sound really good right out of the box and not that expensive ($125 USD). The DT700 pro was good, but the pads are really firm and wasn't that comfortable after a while. The Drop DT17xx was good all around, but pretty full size for travel. The AKG comes with 3 cables of different lengths which is handy if you're at a desk and then mobile on the road with a short one.
