Recommendation for closed back headphones....budget up to £600

Do any forum members have any recommendations for some closed back headphones? Fortunately can spend up to £600 due to a special birthday coming up.Headphones will be used via a naim headphone amp as rest of system is naim based. Getting confused with the choice that is out there. As well as performance, they need to be comfortable and not make your ears sweaty after an hour or two of listening. Many thanks.
Do you have a preference for closed or open back headphones?
My personal choice would be the Grado RS2i's. They're open back, so will allow sound in and out, but open back headphones are generally sound better than closed back - Grado don't make closed back or wireless headphones - just conventional, top quality headphones.
