Hey thanks! I was having problem with my Sony earphone (just bought about a month). Turns out smth wrong inside my right earbud, I just took a pin and try poking slowly. And the sound is all good! Thanks!
 
I have the Skullcandy Hesh 2 Wireless (been using them for about three months now) and all of a sudden the right ear cup sounded significantly lower than the left one. I tried them on different audio sources and still the right one was lower. I took the headphones apart (both right and left) and everything was in its place, no loose soldering or wire. I even opened the headband and ear cup connection part to check for chewed up cable but again all was good as the headphones were relatively new. I was really desperate at this point but read hear that it might be a response problem with the speakers so I gently inhaled by pressing my lips on the right speaker (foam cushions were off)... and VOILA!!! They WORKED!!! The sound was balanced again and both cans' bass response was great.

Wow, I'm just going to have to chime in here with support and gratitude. I had a set of Beats Studio 2 that I've been living with very low audio on the left side for months. For every device, I had to rely on extreme audio balancing, and that only partially helped. With this, I'm back to normal. Thank you so much!
 
I had the same problem..the right side was much louder the left even when i used the wire connector. Solution! I took out the cushion completely..and could see a on the left speaker a transparent round speaker which was slighlt more elevated then the right side speaker...i used a soft tip of the wire connector to push the transparent speaker along the side down a bit and i head a slight click and it stayed down. Now both the sides looked similar and now the sound is even.be carefuly while pushing the speaker down as u might puncher it.... seems while constant use these vibrating speakers come loose and cause one side to loose sound.
