Greetings head-fi community,
I am a new member and because of this I have been doing alot of research in reference towards building a good portable setup. What I've read throughout the forums has lead me to purchase a set of Westone UM2 IEM's, an Ipod 60GB 4G, and a pocketamp 2v2. I am really happy with this setup, however, I was wondering if anyone could answer a few questions in regards to left and right channels of IEMs based on my listening experience. Throughout the past few weeks it appears that the right channel of my IEM has a significantly larger amount of bass than the left. I have tried to determine whether this is a problem with the left driver itself but I wholeheartedly doubt it; because, this feeling of excessive bass in the right channel appears to be directed more towards the "in your head sound" that IEM's create. I would assume based on this experience that I might not be getting a proper seal in my left ear canal, but there may also be other variables. BTW: I am currently using modified Shuge Tri-Flanges ("Bi-Flanges now")
