Hello. I have a problem with my Moondrop S8 IEMs.
Basically the right earphone sounds weird, like some distortion is happening, from what I've read in the glossary, the term that would fit is edgy or piercing and like it has lower bitrate compared to the left side, when high frequencies are being used.
At first I thought that it was because that was how some songs were mastered, but it was ridiculous for so many songs to have the same problem, and I decided to test it a little with the windows sound test and there is indeed a problem.
Tried different cables, sources, switched left with right but the problem still stays with the right side. I'm thinking it is some hardware issue, perhaps a BA driver became faulty.
Here's a playlist with the normal sound and how it sounds with the right earphone, the issue occurs towards the end, it can be easily heard:

Now my questions are the following: Is there anything I can do to repair them? What might cause the problem? Is this something that falls under warranty? (Bought them from https://hifigo.com/ )
