Headphones that sound smooth and comfortable on a pillow?

HI Friends,

I'm going to be spending a lot of time in bed and on my side. I'm sure eventually this will change, but I find myself spending much less time in front of my loudspeakers.

I'm wondering if anyone has a recommendation for good headphones (not IEM's) that are comfortable even when you are lying down on your side?  Or a headphone friendly pillow?  I usually get AKG's.

I like IEM's by the way, just the one's I have really stick out too far to be pillow freindly.

Thanks,


Erik

Klipsh   X11s or older X10s are IEMs that fit almost completely in the ear.  Very small and i've worn them on my side with no issues.

They are a really good sounding IEM at $399 retail.  Go with the no mic version for best sound.  Used x10s can sometimes be found for $100 and are really good deal.

Try in-ear headphones.

I know you said no IEMs, but the Weston W60s are perfect for your request.  They are smooth, they sound freakin awesome IMO.  And there is not issue with laying on the side of your head with them in.
