I sleep with headphones on &amp; need a pair that are not too thick to lie down on. Would these be comfortable with my head lying on the pillow?

On your side no. But sleeping on your back yes I've fallen asleep all the time. ( I never see the end of shows )

On an airplane flight there was a guy snoring a few seats over and I could barely hear his snoring. I was able to sleep without it bothering me.You do need to make sure the fit is secure for the headphones with the proper ear tips and placement in your ear.

Depending on how i am lying down (If on my side, only the headphone NOT against the pillow, i'd leave in) ... I say they would be ok I suppose. I choose to turn the music off once i am moments away from going to sleep, though I have tried other earbuds and even other Sonys .. These are the best ones I have found in years and they are alot more comfortable then others

I would not recommend them to sleep in. I don't think they would stay on your head. Plus they don't last long enough to spend your on.

Well its very pluffy, so you wont feel it at all. And its made out of cloth so it doesnt make any sound when you move your head around pillow. But there is one thing that I need to mention here. So both ends are held together with a cloth zippy thing, which is kinda bumpy. That might discomfort you, until you get used to it.

I can't say since I've used them only for listening to vinyl or CD's for an hour or two at each sitting. I believe that for a closed pad style phone they are very comfortable but I am thinking back to the days of the heavy closed phones by Koss or Superex which were very uncomfortable. What is your priority; good sound or comfort? If comfort is your priority you might want a smaller semi-closed type headphone. If you can compromise these are a fine choice. As others have said, expect these to improve in sound - a more balanced response - over time.

Sure, why not. I just don't prefer them for comfort. I am picky when it comes to my pillows.....

This pair of headphones are quite comfy. My only issue with them is that when I wear them for a long periods, my ears start to hurt, not because of the sound, but because they don't really sit well on my ears - that's probably because my ears are shaped kinda oddly, so its not really a fault of the headphones but of my genetics. Other than that, my brother has used these for 6 hours straight at one point and had no issue whatsoever. However, these headphones are open headphones so not only will the sound leak out (other people can hear it) if you put the volume too loud, but you will be able to hear other people as well. So if the airplane is gonna be noisy, you might as well not be wearing any headphones. This pair of headphones are quite comfy.

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'

I actually used these headphones for in bed. They are not bad. Like any headphones, you are limited to laying on your back. One problem I had with these headphones is background noise from other shows that the headphones would pick up.

I think these are more of your normal sit and listen headphones. They are not particularly sporty for that use I think? I think if you want that, you might need ones that go stick inside your ears as opposed to cup over them.

I don't find these earplug comfortable enough simply for going to concerts. I definitely wouldn't sleep with them in. Good quality foam ones are what you need for sleeping, planes, etc. You want the plugs to squish when you roll over on them.

yes, I would highly recomend them. You will be able to sleep on your side with them on. I use them only in the daytime around loud noise, it blocks out 75% of the volume.

I sleep in mine all the time. With my ear in the pillow sometimes the marshmallow type cushion will close off and the sound will bemuffled, but I just move my head a bit until it opens up again.The other cushions don't do this but I find the marshmallowsmore comfortable. I pretty much live with these in my ear. ;)

Kinda depends on how high your volume is, and how tightly they fit over your head. The foam stops most of the noise, so it shouldn't be problematic for those around you. Hope this helps you decide.

No. Well I can't sleep while wearing these. The metal of the earbuds protrudes and it hurts my ears to lie on my side. So if you're a back sleeper then you might be able to sleep in these. I do use them when I meditate. In a upright position. They block out external noise enough for me to turn off/tune out.

They have a standard 1/8in headphone jack, so yes. Using headphones to go to sleep is dangerous because the cord can wrap around your neck. You may consider another option for bed.
