Hi, so I finally recieved this little gem, but I'm having some difficulty. While I wait for my HD600's to arrive on Monday, I've got a couple backup pairs of lower impedance cans that don't seem to be operating right.
Both the Denon AH-D750 and the Senns HD428 are outputting unequal sound between the left and right ears. The left ear (which the headphone cord attaches to on both) is much louder than the right side, especially at low volumes. It gets to a point where if I turn them down low enough, only sound comes from the left phone and not the right.
As a test, I've tried both with the Beresford 7520 and my Motorola Droid without issue. They do not have this problem.
Could it be a defective tube? If so, do I simply wiggle them loose and try different tubes. The EL84's and the 12AX7B's glow orange with the EL84's being brighter. The cat's eye tube appears to be working fine.
Any thoughts?
