What are the best studio headphones, or some of the best studio headphones that can be found for 1500 or less?

Discussion

I want headphones with deep bass that won’t crackle (at all), etc. I want amazing audio clarity and audio consistency through lows, mids and highs. I wanna hear footsteps in games easily and clearly. I also wanna know if I should buy a mixamp for these premium types of high-end headphones or if I have access to a pc; I should just stick to some downloadable apps that will give me access to personally customize my eq frequencies. I heard the Audeze lcd-Xc are some people’s personal favorite headphones in the 1000 dollar area, but I heard one person’s review on them say the lows are above average, and the mids and highs are outstanding. I’ve found a pretty good deal on the lcd-xc used. I want headphones that can be found for maybe 100 to maybe many hundred dollars off sometimes if possible. I prefer closed back headphones (never tried open back and don’t live alone to say the least), but I am open to open back headphones. If anyone gets back to me - thank you. I am quite new to this audio thing, but I guess I know what I’m looking for now. Btw I currently play on ps5, but will be switching to PC but later on down the road like a year from now.
