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...

- +Very detailed as you would expect from a planar.
- +Treble is very clear and crisp without being harsh on the ears for extended periods of time
- Midrange is good, not great, but definitely good.
- Bass is a preference. It's good but if you are a basshead, this may not be yours without EQ'ing it. It is much better than the Sundara who I would call a direct competitor as they are both planars.
- Imaging is good, but not great. The BLON B03 iem has better imaging, but in over ears, these are very acceptable.
- Soundstage -- Not huge, not tiny. I enjoy it. Not as open as the K7XX, but not as closed as HD6XX. Good balance in my opinion.
Build & Comfort- -Slightly Heavy BUT you don't notice it even in long sessions...
- +VERY well built. It feels like it will last a long time which you want at this price point
- ++++the ear cups swivel on all different axis which allows for the PERFECT fit for your head shape. Why every headphone doesn't do this I have no idea.
- ++ the pads are phenomenal. I love them. Insanely comfortable. I would buy them for every headphone I own if they had them.
Overall These could easily be an "end game" headphone for many people. There are not highly noticeable improvements until you double the price which is crazy. The driver is the same as the Sendy Aiva and new Monolith. It's a very capable driver and if you EQ it, you can really get the bass where you want it without any loss of clarity.
