Are you looking for over/on ear only, or is in ear an option? Anything else you’re looking for besides more low end energy sound-wise?
Oh ya I should have mentioned that thanks. I do not like in ear so that is not an option for me. Soundwise not sure what to say, I have Koss KPH30i and I love them. No complaints there, I just want a closed back version of that sound. @ValentineLuke Thats an interesting idea with the Fiio but I do really want some closed back for a little bit of sound canceling.

These are pretty great:
not the most comfortable though if OP is wearing earings wearing earings.
How do you know? do you have them?
yes I do in fact

ok lol.
But whats wrong with them? are the pads too firm? cups too small? what would you recommend? they look pretty similar to the Status b1
I dont think these would be very comfortable eiter with earings unnless its a stud
the pads are pit small for most ears kinda feel like semin on semi over ears. very soft though. I would reccomend an IEM in this case or something with big cups it just sorta depends on what type of earing we are dealing with.

You wouldnt happen to be bajoran would you?
Anybody tried the PortaPro bluetooth, or any of the other wireless Koss (BT540i, BT539iK)? Could offer similar sound signature to the KPH30i. I’ve not heard the Marshall Major III, but it’d have a similar on ear fit, but may leak a little bit more than a traditional closed circumaural. I haven’t heard them to comment on sound signature, though.
Am I the only one that thinks the Status SB1’s are a little boring in the low end?
nope
if the cb1’s comfort is good for you try the takstar pro 82 has built in bass boost
I’ve only heard that it’s not very good. I think it was lacking power, if I’m remembering correctly.
FiiO BTR3 + MDR-7506. Enough isolation there is no need for noise cancelling.
My brother has the marshalls and I found them underwhelming. But I’m typically not a fan of on ear.
But then I was comparing directly with my nighthawks and teaks at the time. . So switching directly to them may have influenced my negative reaction.
