About Maya

I'm Maya — I've been a light sleeper my whole life, the kind who wakes at every passing car. Living in a noisy apartment with a partner who snores made that a real nightly problem, and I worked through the entire sleep-audio toolkit looking for relief: earplugs, sleepbuds, white-noise machines, the newer masking earbuds. Somewhere in there I got genuinely deep into the gear. I started Sleep Sound Guide because finding a straight answer on which of these things to actually buy had gotten hard — the results were either AI filler or sites pretending to have tested dozens of products they never slept in. So I'll be straight about what this is. I don't run a test lab. What goes into every recommendation here is spec-sheet comparison, tracking of new releases, and close attention to what people who actually sleep with this gear say after months of using it — checked against my own years of relying on it. No hype, no fake hands-on claims, just researched picks from someone who's spent a long time trying to sleep through the noise.
