Hi, so I would like to know whether or not you can tell an IEM is damaged by listening to it. I'm a bit paranoid about it so I would just like to ask it here.

So I accidentally dropped my Campfire Andromeda from about half a meter and people say BA drivers break easily from drops.

They sound 'fine', with both sides having sound and no areas that I can notice that are signs of damage like crackling, but with me being paranoid, I'm scared the drop may have worsened the sound quality even if I can't notice signs of damage. Is that possible?

You can run one of those sine sweeps and see if you can hear a difference between L & R iem.
