I've become obsessed that my right speaker is louder than my left speaker.

Your amplifier, your source and possibly the acoustics of the room make the sound right sided. By swapping the inputs to the power amp around, you are somewhat cancelling the two source imbalances, but are still left with a little, plus the room.
I actually used an spl meter and the left speaker was 82.2db and the right speaker was 82.5db.

Is it safe to say that there is nothing wrong with the speakers?

It is your hearing. I have had the same issue for 40 years and must compensate with balance control.
