Hissing sounds on one side of Beats Studio3

I bought the earphone a month ago and recently noticed that my beat started having this very faint hissing/cracking sound on left side. At first I thought I was hearing things so I tried wearing the headphone flipped and confirmed its not me hallucinating, cuz I hear it on the right ear after I changed sides. It's only one sided so I doubt its due to the noise canceling feature, since in that case both side would have equal amount of hissing...

Anybody else have this problem also? Does anyone possibly know if there is a solution to this besides sending this to apple and have them take a look at it? It's not a super huge problem, but its kind of distracting since I use these as noise canceling when I study (Makes me feel like muscle near my right ear is shaking lol).

Not sure, but the Beats Studio has a feature called active noise cancelling. This was brought up several times before but I may need the community to back me up on this (not sure if its offered in the specific one you're talking about). If it annoys you too much, return it and try to find a different headphone with passive noise canceling.

Appreciate it very much for you answering my question Stanley.

Thats what I found when I was looking up this problem too. But then since the active noise cancelling is supposed to be in both sides of the earphone I was thinking maybe mine has a different problem, cuz it's happening to only one side of my earphone occasionally. I don't think I can return it anymore since I bought it over 1-2 month ago from target, so I kinda wanted to test my luck and see if anybody know what might the problem be.

Now if it was equally in both side then it actually wouldn't be much of a problem for me anymore, just kind of weird when you noticed it in one ear but not the other. Anyhow, for now I will just take it as a sign of my earphone telling me to go take a break once the noise becomes more noticeble lolol.
