AcousticSheep LLC

AcousticSheep LLC was founded in 2007 by Dr. Wei-Shin Lai, a family physician, and her husband, Jason Wolfe, a video game developer. Dr. Lai struggled with getting back to sleep after patient phone calls in the middle of the night. She needed to listen to some relaxing music to help her sleep. But headphones were bulky, and ear buds were uncomfortable. Since there were no headphones specifically designed for sleeping on the market, she invented her own. SleepPhones worked so well for her that she decided she had to offer them to all of her patients taking sleeping pills. Her husband soldered and she sewed the first 500 pieces themselves on their kitchen table. Initial feedback was phenomenal. One lady was able to come off of sleeping pills after taking them for 10 years. Another said that she could finally sleep in the same bed as her snoring spouse, which saved their marriage. Dr. Lai and her husband decided to patent their invention and completely sold out in their first year. In 2010, AcousticSheep LLC developed RunPhones® by popular customer request. RunPhones wick away sweat and don't fall out like ear buds. Both SleepPhones and RunPhones contain removable thin padded speakers within a comfortable stretchy headband. Customers love AcousticSheep products, and sales have grown tremendously. AcousticSheep products can be found on SleepPhones.com, RunPhones.com, Amazon.com, Hammacher Schlemmer, Sam's Club, Best Buy.com, Walmart.com, and a variety of retailers.
