Do any of you listen to white noise music/sound when you go to sleep? I was reading Consumer report and appearly white noise make better sleep. Anyone has good suggestion?

I use a noise machine in my bedroom to aid sleep. Obvious criteria for evaluating these machines are:

1. sound quality (digitized resolution, speaker quality or external speaker jack, length of "loop")
2. reliability
3. portabilty (some travel with it)

Unlike a couple of previous models that broke down, our current one, The Marsonna DS600, has lasted several years. It is a sound spa, or sound conditioner with several digitized sounds (rain, waterfall, etc.). Therapists often use a white noise machine to prevent counseling sessions from being overheard in an adjacent room. Marpac machines have a good reputation for such office use.

yup, box-fans are a staple around here for us shift workers. Tried and true in my family for over 80 years.

White noise machines produce a gentle, innocuous sound that helps to drown out noise.
