I've got a JVC LH-2000 Headunit, Polk 6.5" EX365 coaxials up front, and Pioneer 4" in the rears as well as a small powered sub in my 2004 Subaru Outback Sport. I just noticed that when I put the balance on the front left speaker, it sounds quite different than the front right speaker when I balance it by itself. It sounds more muffled, the highs aren't as clear. I'm not sure if it's 1)the fact that I'm in the drivers seat and the position of my ears is different relative to the two speakers 2)that the songs I'm listening to have a very different track on the left channel or 3) if something is messed up with my install.
I even went as far as swapping the speakers(putting the one that was initally in the passenger door in the driver door) and trying different Crutchfield wiring harnesses for the speakers(I have like a million of them lying around so i tried a few). The behavior is still present. The only thing I can think of is that something on the wiring harness for my headunit isn't done correctly or is loose or that the Subaru speaker wiring has a problem with it. Maybe this is normal but it just seems kind of odd to me. Has anyone else noticed this? Please tell me I'm not nuts
