Balance on Tube Amp


Recently purchased Tube Amp and with my hearing left side could use more volume and my living room will not allow me to keep speaker out approx 8 inches out from wall ...

What would be the best Quality way to make this adjustment on Amp with No Adjustment ???

I have a slight hearing imbalance where some higher frequencies in my left ear are not as strong as my right ear. I only noticed this when I bought a decent tube headphone amp and headphones.

If you’re running single ended connections, I would try the Douk Audio (Nobsound) balance control. It’s built using Yamaha control board slide controls.  I noticed no degradation in sound in my headphone setup. 

For $150, it worked and is built better than I expected. It has a very fine adjustment range. You can find them on the bay searching “HiFi Stereo Passive Preamp Lossless Audio Preamplifier with Volume Control”
