Eerie

I have to get my ears checked. I'm listening to a mix of a song we're working on and I know the bass is panned centre. But when I'm listening to the mix at work, I have to pull the balance slider over to the left to make it sound centred. I'm starting to wonder if my left ear has lost some power.

Maybe my jack or headphones are just off, but I also get horrible crackling sounds in the left ear if it gets overloaded (say if I sing in the shower and get direct bounce off the ceramic tiles at close range.)

Worth checking out, I guess.
