Re: Time to choose my machine
I have both in question, I sleep great on either one...both are quiet and i can only tell a small difference in breathing which is no big deal. You can't go wrong with either one. Only complaint i have is that i cannot seem to get the clock correct on the s9.

Re: Respironics 560p Loud?
I have a 560 that i use at my lady's house on weekends, it sets below the bed, on the floor actually and I don't hear it at all..she is a very light sleeper and it doesn't bother her at all. I hear myself breathing in the mask if anything.

Re: Health results from using a cpap... What to expect?
You will feel better It takes some time to get used to it, but after awhile you wont want to sleep without it.

Re: Advice on flying for the first time with Cpap machine
I flew Southwest in december, had no problems and they didnt count it as a carryon. They did make me take the machine out of the bag and have both in a tub seperate from everything else.

Re: Does machine self adjust?
I have found out myself that the longer i have used the ramp feature, I have had to raise the starting pressure a little at a time to lose that suffocating feeling when starting out. I guess sooner or later I will get to the point where I dont even use it
