What should I do when I can only hear one earbud?
Earphones seem to be a really indispensable product these days, and I think this is all because of the development of smartphones. Let’s take a closer look at what to do when you hear it ~
First of all, why do earphones break like this? Since earphones are my product, I think you should take good care of them if you really value them. Since it is a consumable, it seems that management is really important.
When only one side of the earphone can be heard In most cases, you may have experienced a case where the lifespan of the product is greatly reduced if the product is wrapped in a pocket or washed. In this case, the string is often stretched or shortened, making the inner wires not properly connected.
The earphones have only a few wires inside because the straps are thin, so I think it’s better to wrap them loosely rather than tight. And when you pull out the jack while using earphones, there are many cases of ‘grabbing and pulling the wire’, which seems to be a bad behavior.
As I said before, when only one side of the earphone can be heard, in most cases, the wire connection is the problem. In this case, rolling the line like this sounds good. I think it’s important to fix it right there. If you fix the parts with rubber bands, etc., you will be able to use it for a while.
If the above situation is a line problem, and there is a problem with the socket, I think that everyone has experienced the experience of lightly pressing, pulling out, or gently turning the jack when only one earphone is heard. It will be important to see where the problem lies.
If there is a problem with the wire, there is a way to shorten the wire by cutting the part directly, but I think it is necessary these days.
I looked at a solution when only one side of the earphone could be heard like this, but this is not a perfect solution. It’s only a temporary measure that can be used for the time being, so management is really the most important. Especially in the case of really expensive earphones, you need to take good care of them.
There are a lot of really good Bluetooth products these days, so if you buy and use Bluetooth earphones, people who are difficult to manage will not suffer the same breakdown as when they only listened to one side.
The most important part when you can only hear one earpiece is to take good care of it before it breaks!!! For me, the most important thing is that expensive products become AS, so I think it would be good for mental health to ask for AS without worrying about this and that.
