Ok enough of these contradicting answers. The Eustachean tube is not correct. It is a tube for drainage and allows connecting between the MIDDLE ear and the throat. The Cochlea in the INNER ear works with sound and is responsible for hear. The SEMI-CIRCULAR CANALS are a series of three tubes that regualte the whole balance thing. They basically lie in positions that coordinate with X Y and Z planes. Please, no more contradictory answers. This is the right answer.

Theres not a tube filled with liquid, our balance is maintained by an organ with tiny hairs, located in the inner ear, called the VESTIBULE.
The Eustachian tube does NOT control our balance & equilibrium. It only regulates pressure in our ears & sinuses- like when you'r at a higher elevation & your ears pop.
The cochlea is a bone that contains the vestibule. But it is truly the vestibule that contains the hairs that sense our position.

Cerebellum
Functions:
is attached to the brain stem at the base of the skull the cerebellum or little brain processes input from muscles, joints and tendons. It controls posture, equilibrium and coordinates skilled muscular movement and balance. It is more like a brake than a motor, it regulates fine motor coordination and prevents limbs from flailing about out of control.
It is involved in:
Coordination of voluntary movement
Balance and equilibrium
Some memory for reflex motor movements
Perception, discrimination and emotional response
