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 soundstage is good. There is good separation between left and right, especially on remastered tracks that I tested. It’s fairly open. They are a solid headphone, and a bit heavy. But they stay seated in the ear. I had a little fatigue after a couple of hours, but not too bad. The wire is a little funky, and I don’t know that it needed to be braided. The pouch is made of leather, and is one of the nicer cases I’ve seen for earbuds. So is the cord wrap, which I’m not sure is needed but is a nice touch.
I’m using the one set of foam tips that came with the earbuds, and they fit well. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to attach the earguides, and the A&D website is no help. But so far I don’t need them.
I don’t know that I’d use these in a gym, but I think you could. Overall, I’m pleased. I found myself wanting to listen to different tracks to hear how the headphones performed on all types of music. I think it’s a good sign when you keep telling yourself, “just one more”.
All in all, I find these to be excellent IEMs. If they come back for another drop I’ll probably get a second pair and some for my kids. I think they’re that good. Just my opinion, and your mileage may vary, as they say.
