Outside of the obvious open back issue as noted below, I'd recommend if you're getting the 650s, buy the Drop 6XX version. As far as powering them, a cheap HP dac/amp like the Micca Origen2 would work and still be less than the 650s at over $400.

The 6XXs are no brainers, they've been the standard solid HP choice for decades. But if you want privacy and isolation, a closed back is the way to go. Senn's HD25 is an on ear that's also a common choice.
