sleep phones an full face mask

Post by cpaptony » Wed Jun 12, 2013 5:00 pm

Anyone use sleep phones with a full face? If so what do u find the best way to wear it is. Over the mask, under the mask. Just curious. By the way if u haven't bought some sleep phones yet they are amazing.

I've never used them (look like great idea).

If I did, I would wear them OVER the headgear to reduce potential mask movement.

Only thing I find with over the mask is it blocks the air release holes in front. If it was mesh it would be perfect.

Aaah - the infamous quattro. Can you just keep the forehead section about the forehead support on the mask? Definately do NOT want to block those exhaust holes.
