I'm interested in pillow speakers - are there people on the forum using them?
I did a search of the forum for previously posted information but only found Dodobird's post of some links to retailers:

Plus I found this one:

Anyone know of any others, or can anyone using one give us a quick review.
Thanks,

Vortex.

Well I have both the Sound Pillow (speakers actually inside the pillow) and the Pillowsonic.

Of the two, I guess I prefer the Pillowsonic as it is placed under the pillow and occasionally when I used the Sound Pillow it felt like I was laying on a speaker.

I also think I prefer the Pillowsonic for sound quality plus you can also put the pillowsonic behind (nearly touching) the top of your head and listen that way.

I do have to say that for me to really hear it.. the volume needs to be kinda loud (especially for the Pillowsonic as it is underneath my pillow) and that anyone laying right next to you might hear it as well.

If there are binaural beats/tones that you are supposed to be hearing.. I still wear headphones/earphones.. you just don't get the same effect with either pillow.

I hopes this helps!

Hi Clairity,
That's great, thanks.
Also from other stuff I've been reading it does sounds like the PillowSonic is the best of the bunch. A few more links I've found:
