That with a really good quality system, well burned in, that if you put your headphone on backwards: left phone on right ear, right phone left ear, that it sounds like the band is playing behind you, or you're standing at the concert backwards? Also, maybe right-handed musicians turn into left-handed ones (and vice versa)… Don't know if people have discussed this before... Kind of strange…

The stereo image gets swaped. Left channel becomes right and viceversa. You expect such. It is easier to do with my etys. After a while you get used to certain tunes, as soon as you swap the left for right and right for left, you begin to pick up all sorts of new details to the music that your brain was taking for granted before. Now, the left ear gets to hear what the right was listening and viceversa.
