    Anyone here sleep with noise cancelling earbuds in? Looking to cancel out some snoring next to me. I’m a side sleeper though, so not sure how that’ll go with earbuds in. Currently do not own any so can’t really test it…

        Speak for yourself. I’ve been informed I can impersonate a MAC truck.

          Hahaha.

          Sometimes I wake from a nap to a blaring tv because “someone” can’t hear it. Usually it’s because I’m exhausted.

      Side sleeper and regular washing machine/snore like truck = Llab. Although I myself can’t sleep if someone gets to a snoring before me.

      So I’ve tried a few, though YMMV. Anything hard is a no: EarPods, Loops, Earphones etc., all hurt in time.

      Soft plugs for me take time to get use to. Ones I have used for riding have been Alpine and Surefire. ATM for riding I love the Surefire Sonic Defenders EP5. Haven’t tried them in bed, but they might be a bit too suctiony.

      Honestly though, if I was a flat out back sleeper and could get my Sony 1000XM5 headphones to stay on… That would be heaven.

      Have you tried a fan or similar? Sleeping near noise I find it to be partially an anticipation or regularity problem. A broken snore pattern isn’t too bad, a regular one is. The drip hole in the gutter pinging at precise intervals is unbearable!

      NOT airpods pro. They suck for side sleepers.

      I have some Loops and side sleep. Haven’t tried the combo. You might get too much pressure which can cause damage.

      I do - I am also a side sleeper, but having used earbuds for a while, and a pillow that, while firm, has a cushiony layer, I’m used to the feeling of them. I almost need them to sleep, now

        What earbuds do you use? I’m looking at some Soundcore A10s. Not noise cancelling, but seemingly tick the boxes.
