Why is audio going out in one side?

Sound on the left side goes in and out depending on how the headphones are adjusted and sitting on my head. I can usually get sound to come back by pressing the headphones close to my ear but I have to keep my head in a fix position.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Bryan Gallagher sounds like either the crossover cable has a short in it or some connection on the driver (speaker) has come loose. This teardown Beats Studio 2.0 Exploratory Teardown should help you getting to the connections. Check for anything abnormal looking.

Beats are actually very very cheap headphones with a large markup. Therefore they are actually very poor quality, in build and sound. There’s most likely an internal wiring problem, a loose connection or frayed wire.

You might be able to fix it if you open it up, but I would suggest just buying a new pair of headphones or taking it to get fixed by a trained technician
