A UPS only helps if there's a problem coming from the main line of electricity. I can use the safest power supply chain and cleanest amplifier output, and still blow out speakers by listening too loud that the drivers reach their excursion limits until they eventually break. Given you didn't say you were already deaf from listening this isn't what happened either, and also both your headphones had the left driver die. 

What are you plugging them in to? It could have a lot of clipping on the left channel, has some fault that results in the same damage, or is just really badly designed.

 

Just how loud are you listening anyway? In my case I wouldn't even get to hearing damage levels on either of those on mainstream devices aside from the headphone output on my desktop computer, since the distortion would be so bad before I reach that point my ears will ache not from SPL but from how bad the sound is.

I pluged in directly to a Anedio D2 DAC, At volume 80. Im thinking seriously leave beside the headphones and get a pair of monitor studio.

Either way I'd have that thing checked out, given it was left drivers on both headphones.
