Can you help me with my earphone problem?

Question

Basically I left a glass of water on the floor next to my bed, so i decided to go to sleep and put the iPod down. Little did I know, the left earphone ended up in the glass of water, and must of been there all night. I'm no expert with all this, but the left earphone is a lot quieter than the right, and distorts alot more. I tried keeping my ipod on the window sill, and as I got back home it's still the same. Can anyone help please?

Answer 1

I did something similar a while back, and I let mine dry for a long while, but it was never right again. It was ok as long as I kept the volume low, but there was always this hissing sound if I put it to loud. I just used a different pair.

Buy a new pair of headphones, trade them out and return them?

Answer 2

just dry it with a cotton piece or get urself a new earphone
