Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?
Greetings, Yesterday I was using my headset like normal with my macbook, just listening to music and on a call with people like usual, and the headset was perfectly fine. The stock wire that came with the headset is extremely long and yesterday it annoyed me very much that it kept getting tangled with itself, so I decided to see if the cable is replaceable. I pulled out the cable from the headset and saw the adapter, and looked online for a replacement. Upon plugging it back in, the audio sounded extremely muffled and washed out. Im not sure what I did wrong to make it mess up like that as I've always taken good care of it, ive had it for about 2 years and its always just been chilling on my desk, but anywho I thought the cable just went bad and ordered a replacement. The replacement came, and the issue is still persistant, so I am not sure what the issue is I've tried multiple different headsets and the issue is not with the port, and I also tried it with my windows laptop and...

The headphone held up great for the yeathe headphones are holding togetherr and well... now they are broken a few months after the 1 year mark. Unlike what many other users experienced, my ear-cups did not break at the swivel joint attachment but instead the sliding mechanism to adjust the headphones broke. I attempted to melt the plastic back together with a soldering iron as a temporary fix but it broke again after a week. I am going to try some kind of plastic epoxy that a buddy of mine has.
Although the adjustment bit is broken, the headphones are still wearable and sound just as good as ever. The only effect the break has is that the adjustment is very loose now.
