I want to share an experience I had regarding perception of hearing imbalance.
So, I've been listening imbalanced monitors for long time, and recently switch to a different one.
The imbalanced monitors had the right side lounder than the left, and when I tried out the new monitors, it felt imbalanced, left side seemed perceptually louder.
And then it took a bit of time, about a week for my ear to adjust to the new monitors to normalize my hearing perception.
So, in conclusion, such a scenario can occur. My ears or brain adjusting to imbalanced sound listened to a long time, and it takes a bit of duration to normalize. Odd that auditory system can be stuck to perceptual imbalance for so long(in this case). Hmmmm.
