I recently got my pair of L500s out of storage to find them surprisingly working well. This was a surprise because I had stored them as they had pretty bad channel imbalance.
After using them for a while the imbalance came back, in fact after leaving them plugged in overnight it was pretty bad again.
I unplugged them, grounded the connector pins and gave them a slap on the outside and inside (I read this can help) and when I plugged them back in they were better again.
In addition to this, I have noticed on occasion a quite crackling from the same side that goes quiet over time.
Is there a permenant fix for this issue?
Thanks in advance.
