I don't have the screwdriver to open them to get to the driver so I can't do that until I get one sorry.
Maybe this will help.

Ooh thanks for the graphic, both resistances measure around 550 ohms.  What should I be looking for here?

If the DCR of the drivers is approximately equal, you might want to take them apart a bit and look for debris in the driver that's misbehaving.

Okay, so equal means that there isn't a problem with the sound output?  I resoldered all the joints as well but I can post pictures if that still might be of concern.

It would have me double checking that there's not something else going on with the headphones.

Do you have anything else you can plug the cans into? CD player with a headphone jack? If no, maybe you could walk them down to a local electrical goods store and plug them into something there.
