Earphones

[carlton23]

I have in the ear earphones ,and for some reason the right one is receiving sound but only just whereas the left is ok. Is there some way I can adjust the right one please? I have had them for a long time.

If the earphones themselves have developed a fault, there's almost certainly nothing you can do about it. But sometimes you'll experience the type of problems you report if the earphones simply aren't plugged in properly. (Have you tried wiggling the plug about?).

Evening Chris, yea I have wiggled it about, so it looks like a trip to Maplins is called for, thanks.

carlton. hav^nt seen you for ages, are you well ?

[Buenchico]

Try Poundland first, Carlton23. I've been pleasantly surprised by the sound quality of earphones purchased there ;-)

Hello Anne, I get good and bad day`s, but mainly good, thanks for asking.
Chris: Isn`t there a programme on the PC that I can alter the speakers from L-R?

look to see if its blocked with wax this can occur frequently
if it is poke it out

[carlton23]

deggers!!!how absolutely dare you? lol.

[jacksprat16]

[deggers316]

did u check though carlton?

[carlton23]

deggers: yep, perfectly ok. I`ll treat myself to a new pair from Poundland.

Seeing that no-one has mentioned it yet, you can alter the balance between speakers/ ear pieces by going to Contol Panel then Sounds and Audio Devices.

Wak's information is only correct if the sound card in your computer supports it. Most 'on board' sound chips won't do so (but it might be worth taking a look anyway).

That`s the one I was looking for, thanks wack, and my phones work better now.

Thanks for letting us know, Carlton. Glad it worked for you.
