This is a request to Spotify to allow independent Left/Right EQ and volume adjustments.
This will allow people to compensate for any frequency of hearing loss in one ear. (Like high-level hearing aids do).
It will be a game changer!
If you have partial unilateral hearing loss it should allow you to hear both speech and music better.
You can vote it up here, it needs to get to 50 votes to be considered, and you need to sigh up for Spotify (free) to vote.

Explanation
If you have just one sided hearing loss, it’s very hard to listen to music. You can generally adjust the balance of headphones to make one side louder, but you cannot adjust the Bass or Treble of each side independently.
For example if you lose the bass in one ear, you need to boost the bass just on one side.
Very high end aviation headsets have this feature. For example these Lightspeed Rule Headsets ($1500) allow independant EQ for each ear. They automate the whole system and call it HearingEQity.

But L-R Independent EQ has been around on graphic equalisers for years. Back in the 80’s all the graphic equalisers I played with when mixing bands were stereo.
Please vote it up on Spotify!
