No matter how good your headphones are, if you're anything like me they don't tend to last all that long. It may be because I use them a lot, occasionally step on them or just like to fall asleep with them on but most end up needing to be replaced within a few months.
If you like to wear headphones whilst going to sleep it's best to get noise cancelling type headphones in order to reduce background noise. This also means you can keep the volume down and save your hearing in the long term. More importantly when you're wearing headphones in bed though is the need to be comfortable. This is where Sleepphones come in, a well thought out solution to this problem. They are especially designed for the user to fall asleep wearing them.
When you order sleepphones you are sent two colours of polar-fleece headbands that have a standard 3.5mm cable running down the back. The cable is longer than average in order to allow the wearer to move during the night without getting stuck.
This is perfect for colder climates, but you may be concerned if you live somewhere warmer. Sleepphones don't seem to make you too hot during the night but also act like a sweat band, typical of athletes in the 80's. So this is perfect for those wishing to live out there sports fantasies whilst going to sleep.
Sleepphones provide a decent sound quality although not rivaling brands such as Sennheiser and Bose etc. They also do not deliver the best noise-cancellation and sound spillage may occur as a result. However they are very comfortable and good to fall asleep in as this is what they were designed for. In part at least, it may not be so important to most to have the best sound quality whilst trying to fall asleep.
