What are these like to wear while sleeping? Can you sleep on your ear without pain? Is the sound canal wide enough that it doesn't muffle itself?

Hi,I'm sorry to answer late. When you sleep on your ear with no pain .There is no feeling of pain. And I choose the small earplug. And I don't know what is the sound canal wide.Ha-ha

I'm not especially musical, but I would say their bass sound is good if you have them pushed in a lot. Mine, no matter what size cover I put on them, pop out some so I don't get the full effect of the sound quality or the noise canceling. I use earbuds when I sleep too, but I sleep on my back. You probably wouldn't want to sleep on your side with these. For earbuds, if these are pushed in place well, they have better sound than Apple's, but Apple's latest earbuds stay in better and are better for sleeping. Hope that helps.

They aren't too good for sleeping. I would get soft earplugs (usualy orange). That's what I used when I was sleeping. You should find them in any sporting goods stores.

I would definitely not recommend these plugs for sleeping. These are more or less for working and do protrude from the sides because they are equipped with a handy cord that keeps both plugs from getting lost. For you I would suggest the foam type plugs that you roll between your fingers, then insert into your ears. They eliminate both of your issues.

Yes. However, the sound protectors are bulky enough that they might be uncomfortable during sleep. They would certainly inhibit sleeping on one's side. I suspect ear plugs or ear buds might work better because they will likely be more comfortable.

They are soft and good for sleeping. However, that's very subjective and everyone is different. I use them for 6-8 hours under a helmet on a motorcycle. Also, the fit may take some practice but once you learn how to insert and extract them comfortably they should be good for any use. They stay in place. In fact, be careful extracting them. Go slowly so you don't create a vacuum against your eardrums.

Let me add this after reading other's reviews. They actually cover most of the ear and the very comfortable padding sit on parts of your ear to be exact. I apologize if I gave you wrong information. But to me it just lays on my upper and very little on my ear lobes. You do NOT need th try to stretch them out with a pillow. You want them snug, but not to tight. If too loose you will lose the Bass part of songs. Find a comfortable pillow and lay back and enjoy the music. Over time the material will get use to your head size. Hope that explains it in my opinion.

They're quite long. I have trouble finding a "sweet spot" with it, so it tends to cut into my ears a bit or fall off during the night. They're wide, though, so it's not a huge issue.

They aren't very comfortable for overnight sleeping I've tried. They are a tad too bulky. This is especially the case with "side sleepers" you would be better with 'Hearos ear plugs'

If you don't tend to move much at all during the night any pillow tends to hurt. When this is still new and too firm it might. I rarely hurt with this pillow. But I've hurt with all kinds if I don't move much one night. I also am a side sleeper. I do move back and forth through the night. So ear pain is not as common to me.

If you intend to be sleeping beside the snorer I wouldn't recommend these. They have a small extension that goes beyond flush with the ear. It would be uncomfortable if you turn your head on the pillow. If you are up and functioning around the snorer it would reduce the intensity of the sound but not 100%

I have small ears so after 3 hours or so of non stop use, I get tired. But my friend who has bigger ears can wear them longer. As for them being bright. I think that if you put the gain to 0 or every music you play isnt fluffed you will get true sounds. Not too much bass or mids or highs. Compared to Seinheissers which I love, its a close 2nd to those and those are amazing

I wouldn't sleep in them. They do stick out of the ear and if you sleep on your side it would be uncomfortable. If you sleep on your back it might work.

Hi Carol: I bought these for my niece so I asked her your question and she said that she sleeps with them in her ears, but laying on your side with them in your ears is a little painful! I hope this helps...I would be more than happy to answer anymore questions that you may have. I know that she really likes these ear buds. I bought her a regular Bluetooth prior to this and she didn't like it at all.

They're more "on the ear", than "over the ear" -- they don't have contact points on your skull or jaw, if that's what you're asking. They are super comfortable, and block noise pretty well, in my opinion.

I have tried many different ear plugs for sleeping and these are the best because they're soft and won't hurt your ear if you sleep on your side or roll over.
