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 will advise / warn that depending on your preferences / hearing the treble can be pretty harsh if paired with a brighter Solid state amp... I can't listen to these with my FiiO E07K/E09K stack.. too harsh
They are listenable /not bad with my 80's vintage Kenwood KR-V106R receiver
They are delightful with my DV336SE (RCA 6SN7GT and GE 6AS7GA) the highs are tames the sound stage is good the lows quite good.
blah blah... these are best (imho) when paired w/ tube amp if possible or warmer Solid State amp.. bright SS gear should be avoided.
comfort is quite good
