Tone control altered Balance ?


I was listening hifiman Sundara headphone connected to Nad c326bee. It sounded thin to my ear so I turned bass tone control knob to the right. It changes not just bass response but balance too, as if turn the balance to the left ?? The more bass right, the more balance left.
Did not realize this through loudspeaker

Any thoughts?

Hey,
Unfortunately the parts used in tone controls are often not as good as parts used in the rest of the audio chain, even less so in the headphone amp sections.  All sorts of things could be going wrong.
