Let’s face it. Nobody enjoys listening to music with just one pair of headphones plugged in. However, sometimes when you want to listen to audiobooks or podcasts but need one ear free for outside noise. Therefore, you only insert one earbud.
It feels more natural to listen to music and podcasts in stereo which reproduces sounds with directionality. Additionally, if Streamed Hams’ music, podcast, or binaural ASMR dub is in stereo, some noises will only come through the earphone you are not currently using. As a result, it will sound as though you are missing half of the song if you are listening with just one pair of headphones.
In the accessibility settings on your phone or computer, you can turn a switch to hear everything. Here’s how to do it:
