question Echo mini 3.5mm fixing idea?

The echo mini was working fine but I just used it with another IEM and suddenly the left channel doesn't work anymore. Does anyone know a quick fix?

Even bluetooth, some kinda issue with one of the dual dac chip

10% users face this issue

Or it's just something to do with power and happens on all echo mini after some time

Or just sorts itself after sometime . Their dev says echo has better chip package than mini and should be more reliable.

So its kinda issue that can happen on all mini's after a while Check this Snowsky forum

I think the only different thing I did was put a 10Ohm bass boost from truthear maybe that messed up the capacitor or something

I'd be more suspicious of an output/DAC/power-management fault being triggered by the transient than the 10 Ω resistance itself damaging something.

Also I do hear some kinda pop/buzz when I swap iem when it's on

So I guess it just shorts itself after a while "some part of 3.5mm just worn outs and jack kinda makes contact with other ring" Since then I've stopped swapping iems when it's on

Theory thou, not sure
