Channel imbalance with turntable playback

So I’ve been having a slight channel imbalance for awhile now. Vocal tend to lean left and just overall left leaning gain. I swapped the L&R input on the phono preamp and it sounds way more balanced. Any harm in just leaving it or should I swap them back and figure out what the problem is causing this? Thoughts? Thank you!

visual check azimuth  . if your using headshell there is a slight slack that you can manipulate 

learn to properly set antiskate.in general too much antiskate left becomes thin. in general our daily LP are only using 30 to 40 percent modulation. thus.. it's also more correct to set only about that much anti skate. 30 percent of the total vtf. test LP have more modulation.. thus.... easily get confused. 

read up peter of soundsmith article and YouTube. his info is spot on.
