any recommendation for close headphone? budget anything below 300. looking at a900 is that good?

For home use or portable?
For home, can try DT770.
For portable, can try Audio Technica ES7 or ESW9 if you willing to go above $300.

bose in ear headphones vs sennheiser cx300 in ear headphones vs sennheiser (model cant remember..cost around 42 bucks)

which one is better in terms of bass and value for money? not sure whether the more you pay, the better quality you get for headphones.

Yes others will be able to hear it quite well. Also you would have to turn up the volume quite alot to hear anything as it dosent block out any noise form the mrt. Might damage your hearing in the long run..

Would the audio technica fc5 or sj3 be better for a pair of budget headphones? I prefer more bass :)

Ban leong is the distributer for razer..

maybe check with them? i think most likely can find in those pc show..

but actually you can get better quality by going for other price instead of getting razer

Gn to Jaben Network in Adelphi near funan. They sold mid to high end earphones or headphones there. Before you buy, can try first with your own devices or amp. They also provide ordering if your earphones out of stock. Custom made earphones also available, can cost you $2000.
