What song are you listening to?
Is it possible that this is just how the song goes? Sometimes songs will have that bass guitar always to one side for example. Is this a "never any bass on one side" issue, or a "don't get bass on one side for particular songs" issue?
Do you have any other headphones or speakers at all?
I listened to multiple songs.
It might, but I have listened to quite a few different songs. Unless all the songs just put bass in the right... :/
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJOzdLwvTHA The first 10 seconds it has that stringed instrument of some kind... It is a very low sound... I don't hear parts of it in the left. Like, I hear some of it but not all of it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58CJih1iYC0 I don't even hear the bass guitar in the left on that.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...QJuKDY&feature=related 35 seconds in I barely hear the drums on the left. I don't hear the deeper sounds with the drums.
Pretty sure it is not just a particular song. I listened to multiple ones.

Well just to be sure, here's something you can do.
You can get one of these sweeps and play it back on your headphones. You can adjust the balance on your computer to have it play on just the right or just the left and you'll be able to tell if one side of your headphones isn't playing below a certain frequency.

Maybe try this one
http://realmofexcursion.com/au...0hz_to_250hz_sweep.mp3
(20 Hz to 250Hz sweep)
Doing this one below.
Right: 8 seconds in, I hear something on the right(very quiet, very low)... It gets louder and more noticeable by a lot around 15 seconds. 25 seconds in, very noticeable. 35 seconds, even more so. 50 seconds, pretty loud compared to beginning.
Left: I hear nothing until about 30 seconds in. 45 seconds in it's a bit noticeable, but really quiet. 1:05 I hear a humming... It's getting a lot more noticeable at 1:15, but still quiet. It gets louder and more noticeable. It's just really quiet compared to the right.
Equal levels in the system preferences.
I changed the system volume to 10%, because that's about normal for me. I listened to the right and then I listened to just the left and turned the system volume up and up and up.... I put it over 50% and the left was still quieter than the right in this test. When I was getting it louder it still didn't even sound right. It felt very off... Like it was missing parts of the sounds.
