So, my re-262's had their cable go bad very shortly after purchasing them so I sent them back to hifi man.  They send me a new pair, but this pair came unbalanced and with a less flexible, MUCH longer cable.  I contacted them and they said they only have one version of cable, which is obviously not true.  And, it could very well be all in my head, but they might even sound different.  But, here's the other kicker: I can't get very good fitment unless I wear them backwards, left ear piece goes in the right and vice versa - so I'm using the adapter that comes with the re-262's to change the channel, but they're designed for balanced headphones to use with, at least so i believe?  The odd thing is they might sound fine, but I don't have a pair not like this to compare it to.
 
What would you do?  If hifiman doesn't answer my newest e-mails I don't know what to do, my original pair of re-262's sounded awesome
