Left ear bud sounds slightly muffled. It drives me crazy. I've checked connections on both buds and they seem fine. I can't tell if it's a cable problem. I don't want to buy a $60 cable without knowing it's really the cable

When you pull the wire up does it increase the right ear bud volume/ sound? If it does, then it means the right side ear bud has a short within the head phones circuit which is aka the wire that leads to the musical device in which the ear buds branch off from.
If the right side ear bud does not produce an increased volume for sound by picking the wire up or pulling it in towards you or to the left side of your body or musical device then it means that the right speaker is blown.
I know that all head phones come spiced together aka they are stuck together and have to be pulled apart in order to get both head phones seperated from each other so that they can be worn in the ears. If you pulled the wire apart to much or too quickly then that is what ruined the right head phone.
I suggest that regardless if the ear phones begin to work by pulling the wire up,side ways, or into towards your body that you return them back to the store since after awhile the problem will eventually continue to happen causing the right ear bud to completely blow. Once you return the ear phones be cautious with the new set when you seperate the ear buds from each other since they are very touchy and have to be handled with delicateness when seperation is taking place.
Please let me know how it works out for you. I have had many ear buds and I tell ya something; they are very easy to blow one side when seperating. I had to learn after a few pairs that I was ruining the speakers by the way I was seperating my wires. I kept thinking for the first 3 pairs that the store was selling blown ear buds until I began having same problems with another few stores so I said to myself "well the solution is to figure out what I am doing wrong in order to blow one side of my ear buds every time". After few seconds it was not that obvious that all I had to do for assembly was to pull the wires apart in order to get both ear buds to go into my ears.
buy new headphones?. i think a lot better than trying to repair it. it sounds like you are talking about where both earbud wires come together at the molded connector part that splices the wires together. unless you are mechanically inclined and electrically astute, you should just replace the
Hi,what makes the left hear completely silent it because the wire inside the left side ear bud might have cut and it's not contacting with the speaker inside the ear bud.
What you will do is this, open the left ear bud that is not working, check if the connection is not properly fix. Also after checking if the wires are intact, if the wires inside are intact with no trace of cut inside,that means that the speaker inside is damaged and will need to be replaced..
If you can't do it your self, I would advice you contact a skilled personnel for help.
had the same problem with the right ear bud and I don't know if it is suggested in the manual, but cleaning the mesh on the ear bud with a cotton stick dipped lightly in alcohol (almost dry) helped with me, the sound is back 100%.
