Here's an interesting question for SS: Could an out of phase pair of CIEMs cause discomfort or even pain?
Backstory: I received my UERMs in a couple weeks ago. Being my first pair of customs, I only knew what to expect from reading others' opinions. Plugged in my cable and went ahead. Over the past 2 weeks, they started to become uncomfortable or fatiguing after even an hour or two. I just assumed it was my ears and have been dealing with it.
An hour ago, I unplugged my cable to wipe down the shells, and noticed I had the cables plugged in incorrectly. Upon fixing them, they don't seem to be nearly as confusing and even the physical comfort seems to have improved. Am I just experiencing placebo, or could there be something behind this?
