When I'm only wearing one earpiece, either of an IEM or headphones, it sounds different. Like, all of its faults are right there. I remember before my head-fi days my CX300's sounded fine, except for when I was only wearing one. Then, they sounded muddy, and bassy, and just dull. Now, I know can hear that almost immediately upon donning them. But, with other headphones that still sound good, they just don't when I'm only wearing them half-way.
Is something actually changing, will even good headphones sound bad with only one earcup on, or does it actually help you distinguish shortcomings?
If it is indeed the last one, why?
