I like my MS-1s, but they just ain't stable enough. So I usually hit up the DT770s -- I agree with Erik, that Beyer comfort is unbelievable for such a bulky can.

ATH-W1000s. Nap with them all the time.

 

[AzN1337c0d3r]

[robert1325]

PX100 !!! That bass bump really helps at low volumes

 

[MacAnkka]

Sennheiser cx300. Small and comfortable.

I cannot fall asleep on my back for the life of me, so none!

 

[eugen3]

UM1s. most comfortable of all my earphones.

beyer dt150s don't allow me to lie on my sides, they're just too big.

I wouldnt mind the crossroads mylar 1/3 either.

Nap with my Dog in the afternoon, Fall asleep with MS1s and dream I'm wearing MS Pros.

Speakers are the way to go when sleeping

or mylarone at very low volume

I sleep on my side, so big headphones don't work that great

I know my least favorite: Shure e3c / E4c. About a year ago, I woke up with most of the hearing in my right ear gone. I fell asleep and the IEM had been driven into the ear canal hard when i rolled over. Not much fun walking around for a couple days with very little hearing in one ear. I don't think sleeping with IEMs is safe, at least if you occasionally roll over vigorously.

I can almost lie on my ear with the e500's... nearly comfortably. Some lulling ambient music can be nice when trying to relax for a nap. Once I'm falling asleep, I usually like to pull them out right before I drift off completely.

I prefer a pair of speakers near my bed for the occasion, and a remote next to me to trun it off, sometimes I can't sleep with music, other times easily, depends on the music and volume I suppose.

Also it is possible but maybe it only effects cheap buds, but some phones get absolutely ravaged during the night, rolling on them, potential impaliment by IEM's, who knows, fear the death of good phones.

I occasionally take a nap with my HD600's, very easy to fall asleep if you got the volume set a bit below what you usually listen on and because they're quite airy. I kind of like sleeping on my back though (I couldn't do it before, but I got used to it after 2 weeks of being hospitalized where I had to lay fixed on my back)

If I'm lazy or simply want to be in another resting/sleeping position I just use my speakers from the computer (Logitech Z-5500) and put it on Stereo x2 (2 speakers are mounted right above my bed against the wall) so it's quite nice.

Speaking of which, I ought to go to sleep now.
