Headphoneus Supremus
Listen to dsnuts and me...them fx850 will blow your MIND!!!!!!!!!!
I sleep on my back so have no problems whatsoever
WEll, I've always had the habit of leaning my head on my arm, which curls around my eyes, and the arm leans on the pillow when sleeping on my side (which is how I always sleep). Think it started as a way of keeping light out of my eyes in the morning (must have had crummy shades in my room as a child). When I have larger iems, that go out further, just lean the upper part of my head on my arm, which is on the lowest part of the pillow, which keeps my ear elevated off the pillow. Comes from years of sleeping this way, not sure if you can pick it up as an adult, but maybe...
Having said that, The iems that are the most comfortable to sleep in are the, that I have, are the Westones (W3, W4, W40 are the ones I've used). Amazingly flat in-ear fit, comfortable, great isolation. You may like others better sound wise, (but they really do sound great), but of the ones I have, whch is much too many, they are the ones easiest to forget when they are in (of course, many out there I haven't tried).
May give sleeping in iem classes, love to teach

Actually, if any earphone has taught me about burn in being real (although I already knew), it's ironically a BA earphone. I heard absolutely no bass to speak of the first couple of days with the Doppio. Now there's bass (and a fuller sound) in spades. It has become my favorite universal all-BA earphone (even beating the might W4 to my ears).
It's both real and myth. Each piece of equipment responds differently. Some do, some don't. The fact nothing ever burns in "worse" leaves a lot to myth. I've given away headphones with 300+ hours on them that people believed "burned in" after awhile. The same can be said when "burning in" a Plasma TV.
