I'm so tired of everyone suggesting a CPAP machine. My husband's is SO LOUD that first I couldn't sleep w/ him because of the snoring, now I still can't sleep w/ him because of the noise of the CPAP machine. We even have it in a closet w/ the door open just enough to let the hose out. What kind of CPAP are you using that is quiet enough to live with. My husband has tried 2 DeVilbiss CPAP machines, 1 DeVilbiss BiPAP (which was so loud we could hear it downstairs) and 1 Sullivan CPAP machine. Do you have any suggestions. I have tried 5-6 different kinds of earplugs and they DO NOT MUFFLE THE SOUND! I would appreciate any help you can give!!
