Hi all,
I have a problem. The sound coming from the right side of my e4c has started dropping a few weeks ago (it stabilized after a week of decline). It sounds as if all the soundstage was cramped up on the left side of my head, as well as reducing the overall clarity (on the right side because volume has dropped and on the left side because all the instruments sound close to each other). The frequency balance hasn't changed, bass, mids and highs still sound the same as before. I changed tips and cleaned my filters since then but the problem persisted. I tried it amped with my home setup (Md-10 to H5) late at night to see if the seal was the problem, but with no sound in the house and good amplification the imbalance remains.

Did anyone have the same problem, and if so how did you solve it?

I thought I had less volume coming from my left channel on my E4's but after a while I attributed to fit issue. I always have a little more trouble getting great seal with my left ear. Must be a cartilage thing.

Sound like you have a defected channel
