I fall asleep listening to the radio with in the ear earphones. It is
an inexpensive portable radio with a course speaker. Will good
earplugs improve the sound. Any suggestions under $50

Get a pillow speaker.

I can suggest some $10 headphones that I probably wouldn't wanna fall
asleep on, but they are over the ear phones with seperate volume for
each channel, a stereo/mono switch, and great SW radio listening
quality.

The minuses are they seem to be built for the head of a child but they
can be bent a tad fo fit bigger heads.

I stumbled across these at http://www.allelectronics.com
