Closed back headphone recommendations? (feddit.de)

It seems like open back are the defacto recommendation for headphones. I already own an AKG K240 and since I intend to use them around other people, I don't want the noise bleed. What do people prefer for closed back applications? I've been looking at the DT 770 Pro's and the Hifiman Sundara Closed. I really like a sound signature with a bass emphasis. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Tbh Ive had trouble finding any I like, tried k371, Aeon Closed X, Senn 300 Pro, Senn 280 pro, and some more. Almost always prefer IEM's over closed backs

Best I've heard is Focal Bathys

I've got a few sets of IEMs that I enjoy, but looking for a bigger sound I think.
