Is this unhealthy...

Is it unhealthy to use headphones/earphones/whatever the fuck their called with one side softer then the other..? My Razer Morays finally started to show signs of age. I've used these for a few years and finally, one side is getting softer then the other. And I tested with many many videos, their all the same. Right side softer then Left. Is it unhealthy to use them like this?

 

your ears normally hear different decibel levels all day long, it helps you to determine which direction a sound is coming from.

if the volume isn't too high it won't harm you. I still recommend that you stop using them- they will annoy you and may give you a headache;
besides headphones are rather inexpensive-

 

Oh but if you know my life, they cost a kidney and an arm.

And the thing is, I've never really used the left part. For some reason, I only listen to stuff using the right. Only sometimes I use the left.

 

I wear a speaker on my ear all day at work, so I don't see that would do you any more damage than my headset does to my right ear.

 

Thanks.

 

No problem. Is there an equalizer?
That should make a difference.

 

whatzat?

 

An equalizer. It changes the volume from which ear you want the sound out of the most. You could balance it if you want it softer in the left.

Plus, if it's stereo, the music may be softer for the right, but I doubt it.

Go to sound options (Volume Control) to find the equalizer (also known as fade).

 

But it's my headphone's problem. not the computer volume.

 

I know. The equalizer may be able to make the sound louder in the right part, but it would lower the left as well...

 

Okay.. I'll try it. Thanks.

 

Why not just go buy another pair for $20?

 

... You don't know me.

 

That would be like telling me to go spend $20 on something. I get maybe $100 over the course of an entire year. Usually, that's less. I'm sure there are other people with personal funds on the same level as me.

The moral of the story: Not everybody has $20 to spend on whatever whim comes up.

 

I don't even get more then 20$ a year.

 

Seriously? I take back what I said then.

 

Bah! Someone send the goat some new headphones! I would but my last set just died not to long ago from an attack of my 1yr old.

 

Money makes the world go round, but there really isn't enough of it. :/

My only other headphones are crappy used Apple ear buds. Needless to say, they suck.

 

No. I can hear clearly on both ears using the "right" part of the headphones.
The left part is getting soft.
