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...

I don't know how people can say something out loud without having any evidence... Was it Massdrop or Sennheiser that wanted 100K request in order to have another drop? Do we even have 100,000 active community members on Massdrop? Can Massdrop see why kids love the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch? How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?
Two important factors that a gamer needs when it comes to headphones are comfort and sound stage.
I can literally wear K7XX's for 10+ hours without any discomfort and you won't feel any pressures or clamping force around the head. Not only it has clean detailed sound, the sound stage is so wide you can hear the surroundings of the enemies and the environment. One thing I'm a bit disappointed is the bass, it's not heavy or too low, it just feels like it's lacking a bit (which most open back headphones do lack). Overall, AMAZING investment for any gamer.
Trust me, my experience with playing games changed me when I've purchased my first K7XX. (I recommend you to invest an amplifier in the near future)
You're welcome to ask me anything - anytime.
Now I've been worried time to time since the thin strings on the sides are the reasons holding the headband together when you put them on. If you accidentally cut them, the headphone will be having trouble resting on your head. But, what are the chances that you'll accidentally cut the strings when they are placed somewhere reasonably safe and either way... all you'll be doing with this headphone is putting it on your head and not throw around with it. Many reviewers reviewed the durability, and it's very solid and flexible. The strings won't break easily. When you put them on your head, the strings won't even stretch that much, unless you have a very large head.
As for Kelp, he was asking if there is any setup or adjusting required when using the K7XX (possibly also including a amp, but he does not specify) to play PC games or is it pretty much just plug in and start gaming.
" Use four small binder clips to stop the headband from moving too far. "
P.S. I had no idea Flare made IEMs. I remember when they started as an earplug company.
PS: I guess Flare started as loudspeaker company. But when they introduced Flare R2 series on kickstarter they effectively stopped my lifelong search for better IEMs. They were even on MD https://www.massdrop.com/buy/flare-r2a-iems
