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...

Other than that, nice set heavier than I expected, very nice sound, good Bass. Much more solidly constructed than my other HifiMan adventure (the HE-350 that broke after less than a month).
Looking forward to listening to more music on these.
If I plug them into the Little Bear B4 I can have my dac at -25dB to -20dB and the Little Bear at max, but they get super bassy. I listen to my powered monitors at -35dB on my dac just for comparison. Having said that, it is possible to listen to them on my Galaxy Note 4 with the volume at max and not be dissappointed.
until my audio gd R2R-11 arrived yesterday and I am discovering newfound love for the 4xx.
People say the amp gets better after 300~500 hours of burn in so the only way is up!
Long story short, i recommend matching the 4xx with the R2R-11 dac/amp.
