Only Hearing Audio On 1 Side of Headset
« on: September 29, 2007, 02:50:02 PM »
I have a cyber acoustics AC-634 headset

Had this baby for over a year

Recently is seems as if it's only letting out audio on the left side of the headset (where the cord is). Some Songs are annoying now and it throws me off when trying to listen to people talk.

If any1 has any steps to try and fix or have had this problem before please post, thanks

Wiggle the headphone plug in the jack and listen- if you get stereo audio occasionally it means either the plug end is bad (most common scenario I've run across) or the jack is damaged (usually have no audio though). If nothing changes then it's most likely broken in the cord or in the headset itself (although I find that to be much more rare than the cord getting rolled over by a chair and broken internally)

I use thumbtacks on my desk to keep the cord up away from the chair wheels.  ;)
