SleepPhonesAcousticSheep Classic - Corded Headphones for Sleep, Travel, and More - The Original and Most Comfortable Headphones for Sleeping - Midnight Black - Fleece Fabric (Size M), Wired

I struggle with misophonia which has given me bouts of insomnia in the past. I found relief with another wired speaker headband a few years ago, but the audio started to crackle and so I went searching for another one.Amazon has a lot of cheap-seeming speaker headphones and pretty much all of them seem to have issues with build quality, sound quality, comfort, etc. AcousticSheep seems to be the only brand on Amazon.ca that has a reputable, persistent business behind it, with an actual website, an actual warranty guarantee, and actual customer service. I'm hoping that this reputation will hold up!The pros, so far:- 1 year warranty, and customer service!- I can sleep!- Takes a little getting used to, but I've gotten to a point where I am comfortable side-sleeping with the speakers near/on my ears. I don't wake up numb-eared like some other sleep headband speakers make me.- Decent (but not perfect) coverage as an eye mask.- Soft, good-quality fabricThe cons, so far:- When I want to lie on my back, the velcro closure and/or the device inserted into the back of the headband are rather bulky and are uncomfortable after a few minutes.- Taking the speakers out to wash the headband is going to be a pain, I can already tell. Especially with the bulky velcro closure in the way.- The cord kinks somewhat easily.The audio:- This one is difficult to rate objectively, but for my misophonic experience, it's... acceptable. There are variances in my whitenoise audio that I notice, but less picky people probably wouldn't. I, personally, have found I can get past it. There is NO crackle or static so far, however. If you're just using this for music or other audio it's probably totally fine.So far so good. I hope these last.

La razón por la que uso estos audífonos es porque comparto apartamento por lo que no puedo tener un despertador de altavoz.Es cómodo al momento de ir a dormir, aunque a veces me quedan las orejas adoloridas al despertar (digamos una de cada 3 mañanas y no dura mucho la molestia). Dicha molestia es un precio bajo a pagar por una solución infinitamente mas cómoda que ponerme audífonos de chicharo o diadema al dormir pues yo duermo exclusivamente de lado.Voy en mi segundo par. El primero me duró alrededor de un año y no tenerlo por unas mañanas subsecuentes a que se dejaran de funcionar no fue placentero. Me son indispensables ya.

Very comfortable to wear at night while sleeping listening to music or not. They cancel out the noise around you. They work great for sleeping next to someone who snores. Highly recommend.

音はとてもいいです。寝ながら、ヘミシンクを聞いています。スピーカーは、ヘアバンド状のベルトの中で 動かすことができるので、自分の耳の位置に合わせられます。

I received my first "pair" of SleepPhones (black felt, medium) yesterday and used them last night while falling asleep, so the review is for my initial impressions and not long-term durability.It took me a minute to figure out the proper way to wear them -- I think the label goes up by the top of your forehead, facing in a way that someone looking at you would be able to read it -- this leaves the speaker wire hanging down your back. The speakers were pretty much in the right position, but I did have to nudge one of them a little to get it in front of my ear.My first experience with them was listening to a guided visualization/meditation, binaural ASMR style (ASMR stimulates a relaxing sensory response in some people). Right away, I was very impressed with the speaker quality. I would say it is as-good as my $200 on-ear pair, but far and away more comfortable for sleeping. The headphones become one with the pillow and are almost "invisible" in that sense.I say "almost" because the headband itself, while a perfect fit for me (average size women's head), was a tiny bit uncomfortable and warm, but it's a minor detail overall and I can't really think of a better way to get speakers to stay on my head (except to try the molded in-ear headphones, which I've yet to shell out for). I'll add that I have tried LOTS of different headphones and never really found any of them to be comfortable for more than 30 minutes or so. The SleepPhones were far more comfortable, sounded great, and did not bother my ears at all! Given how comfortable they are, I am curious to try a headband made from a lighter fabric for daytime use. For night-time, however, the soft plush felt is the way to go, IMO.Moving on... the cable is braided and although thin is nice quality and doesn't get twisted up like some of the thicker cable styles. There cable is long enough to place your playing device (iPhone, etc.) on the bed-stand, but I would say it is just long enough for this purpose and you can't really move. While you can purchase aux cable extenders, an extra foot of length would be nice to have and I can't see how it would add much to their manufacturing costs. I think this point has been made by other reviewers.When my meditation ended, I woke up enough to take these off, meaning I did not sleep through the night with them. Judging by my experience, I expect that they would be comfortable for many hours of sleeping/wear and the only problem would be tangling yourself in the cable when moving in your sleep. I have fallen asleep with regular headphones (my v-moda on-ear) and the extended pressure causes discomfort on the ears that can last for an hour or more. I think the SleepPhones would even be suitable for side sleeping since I turned by head to the side while wearing them, and the speaker is so low-profile that it just blended into the pillow.Overall, I have to give 5 stars when comparing these to the general quality of what's out there. You can tell a lot of attention went into making these and the price is reasonable too. I hope they hold-up because most of my cheaper headphones lose sound in one speaker after a while. If they last a year or even six-months of heavy use, I will be very happy and will have considered this money well spent for enabling my relaxation time.
