Some brain surgery to rewire your ears is another option. Could make for an entertaining Darwin Award.

You could go out and buy a couple of microphones, an amp and some headphones. By pointing the microphones at the speakers and using them as the two line left/right inputs to the amp, and using the headphones, you're nearly there.
Then all you have to do is cut the wires to the headphones and swap them over.
It might be worthwhile constructing a pair of soundproof boxes to put each speaker / microphone combination into to stop cross-over leakage.My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment

How about turning the speakers up really loud and buying the house on the other side of the wall behind the speakers. Move in and Voila! Stand facing the wall and they are the right way round.My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment

Buy 4 mobile phones. ABCD.
Put A in front of speaker 1 (Left)
Put B in front of speaker 2 (Right)
Using a rubber band, masking tape, or a handy roll of latex laying around, affix Phone C to your Right ear. Affix Phone D to your Left Ear.
Using Phone A, dial Phone C and answer it.
Using Phone B, dial Phone D and answer it.
Problem solved !
Simples !
ps...own up.. How many of you checked to see if I got my A-C and B-D the right way round, and more importantly, if I hadn't, would you have felt compelled to correct it ? Why ?Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I've thought of a dead cheap solution.
No more than £120 ish.
From a medical supplies shop, get two lots of stethoscopes (plus a tag to identify which is which) then cut one ear piece off one stethoscope and the other ear piece off the other stethoscope. Rubber-band each stethoscope listening end to a speaker and bung the other end in your ears. If that hasn't fixed it, just swap the stethoscope listening bits over, or the ear-hole ends if you prefer.
Use the identity tag to remind you which is which in future.My all-time favourite Dilbert cartoon, this is: BTW, a Dumpster is a brand of skip, I think.Comment

I saw a breast enlargement on "Dr 90210" the other day. They inserted unfilled gel bags through her belly-button and used a hollow rod to position them in the boobular area. Then finally injected the silicon gel through the rod.
I never want to see that again."take me to your leader"Comment

I enjoy watching surgery. If I needed an operation I reckon it'd be really cool if they could use local anaesthetic and rig up a camera so I could watch what was going on and ask questionsOriginally posted by Grinder View PostI saw a breast enlargement on "Dr 90210" the other day.

I once had a big toenail removed under local anaesthetic. Had a series of jabs around the base of the big toe and a kind of tourniquet arrangement also.Originally posted by NickFitz View PostI enjoy watching surgery.

Morbidly fascinating to watch them slide what looked like a pair of flattened scissors under the nail and bend it back on itself before yanking it free! How the blood flowed!! Felt like an extra from "Marathon Man".
By fook did it hurt later when the anaesthetic wore off mind!!

I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
