I have only recently noticed this. I have had the headphones for over a year. They are the expensive beats by dre headphones with the power switch.(Won them at a raffle) The static is coming from the left ear and is constant in all programs. However if I tilt my head to the right so that the left ear is above the right ear slightly the static disappears. Is there an easy fix to this or should I just scrap it up and find a replacement pair?
