headphone problems....

hi all,

sorry i have not posted much but i have not found the need until now...

i am a keen music fan and has experienced problems with a couple of pairs of headphones in the past listening to music with them on the macbook air, it seems the music only comes out of 1 ear bud. the pair i were using are a bit old, so i bought some new ones, same problem...any ideas?

P.s i checked the fader and its central

Well, let's see. If you can check the manufacturers website, there may be some drivers available for your headphones. This is unlikely but possible.

If that doesn't work, I can't really think of much else, besides maybe you bought two pairs of defective headphones?

I wouldn't recommend using ear buds, are these the ones that go into the little circular jack on your MBA?

I would definitely buy a USB headset.
