The Best Noise Cancelling Headphones for Sleeping

Sometimes listening to your favorite music in bed is the only way to start your every night’s rest. And what’s better to get the most out of your top playlist than the best noise cancelling headphones for sleeping?

But, wait:

Isn’t listening to music in bed a distraction to your time to rest in the first place?

Well, I know a nighttime of silence is purely golden. You can go to bed, cuddle in your blanket, close your eyes, and wait for sleep to come.

What better way to wash off the mental dust after a long, tiring day than to get enough rest in silence.

However, not everyone is lucky to get the quality of sleep that he or she really should.

Think of the annoyingly noisy neighbors who play loud music until late in the night. Don’t they deny you the opportunity to get peaceful 6 to 8 hours of rest?

Worse, what about that partner who snores in some nights, or perhaps all the time?

Or, maybe you are not used to going to bed until late in the night. And you are looking for something that can keep you busy in bed.

That’s where music and sleep headphones come in.

In fact, listening to music is more relaxing.

And it can help you fall asleep faster, even if you spend all your nights with a relentlessly snoring partner.

Instead of using buttons for volume control, C Crane implements a slide controller that you slide to any direction you want to adjust the loudness of sound that should get through to your ears.

It features a retractable, 1.2-meter cord that weighs only 38 grams. This stereo is the cheapest headphone with a premium feel from an established brand.

Clip-on Stereo is for people that hate to use bulky headphones. This one has one retractable cord instead of two.

And it delivers high quality sound that gives you the exact musical comfort that you expect from a  a well-known brand.

Clip-on Stereo is available in different color. Popular colors are black, blue, and orange. And, of course, there are additional colors to choose.

I have included this as a feature because color is important. After all, everyone has a favorite color, and the color of a pair of headset is not an exception to be frank.

The 1.2-meter retractable cord connects the earcups from the outside. This makes the earcups as lightweight as possible, so that you can have a great musical experience.

And it’s designed mainly to keep your head warm, while allowing you to listen to your favorite music in the cold and unfriendly night.

It covers head and ears. And both speakers hold in position pretty well.

So, it shouldn’t fall off, no matter how many time you twist and turn in bed.

Also, Beanie is washable. All you have to do is to remove the speakers from the pouches, and then do the washing.

ZenNutt Beanie can standby for 60 hours without losing any of its charge. With a single 2-hour charge, you get about 4 hours of playtime, which isn’t quite good in my opinion.

The package includes a unique USB charger for the ZenNutt Beanie Hat.

It doesn’t take long to pair ZenNutt Beanie Hat with music devices that support Bluetooth connection. In fact, it pairs well with tablets, smartphones, and Bluetooth-enabled laptops.
