Audio weirdness - My mp3's are acting doing the impossible

[SYNTuesday]

Great. I tried all those things, and not a single one ended up helping. Especially the killing my parents bit... you shoulda seen how hard it was to convince the cops to let me use a computer. In any event, I'll be damned, since it turns out the input jack on my subwoofer (which then has a wire running to the speakers) was loose or tight or something, in such a way that the left signal coming out of my sound card was being sent to both of my speakers. A little plug-pushing and everything was fine. Oh well. :2:
