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...

or else you'll be at 35 going "what?" all the time and having difficulty picking apart sounds in a crowd.
If you aren't aware of this issue, you aren't paying attention.
stupid.
"Dr. Carol Rousseau, a clinical audiologist, tells Ultimate Classic Rock that “music-induced hearing loss is caused by damage to the hair cells in the cochlea or inner ear. Hearing loss can occur gradually over time or, if it's loud enough, it can occur after just a single exposure. You can have a temporary threshold shift, where the hearing can return after approximately 16 or so hours after initial exposure. But after multiple exposures — like playing concerts night-after-night — and not letting your ears rest, it can lead to a permanent threshold shift.”Rousseau says that National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) “considers a safe noise dose to be 85 decibels (dB) for eight hours a day,” but that for every three-dB increase, that time period is cut in half. And for bands that regularly pack bigger venues like arenas and stadiums, that can prove costly down the line. “I’ve read the loudness levels at AC/DC concerts range anywhere from 105 to 130 dB,” she notes. “At 105 dB, damage can occur after only about 15 minutes of exposure. And damage to the inner ear can occur instantaneous at 120 dBs. ... It’s balancing loudness and duration.” "
The comment has nothing whatsoever to do with volume! Now, you will have to open your mind a little bit and imagine a "concert" given at volume levels that are not damaging to one's hearing. Believe it or not, they do exist out there. You've just never been to one.
The original comment, meant to be a joke more than anything, is simply this..
Why would one pay good money to listen to something, then put earplugs into their ears when they go to hear it?
Pretty funny, huh?

Will THAT do? guess I HAVE been to, oh, MORE than one. Many many many.
Maybe I'll take my earplugs....SURE. who is it that's dense?
You're clearly unable to conceive that the persons that you are busy insulting may just have the sense to protect their hearing when circumstances call for it. NOBODY defined that they wear the plugs to EVERYTHING, but you are busy assuming, presuming. And being needlessly insulting, mostly because you just plain said something stupid.
You see, you're just this negativist who now feels like he has to defend his insult to people who are intelligent enough to protect their hearing, because he assumed some things about what they meant. And what they listen to. Are you assuming that what you listen to is better than what they are listening to? Your remark wasn't particularly specific enough to carry anything intelligent enough to have gone OVER anybody's head. When people didn't appreciate your smack, you insult them again without actually having the credibility for doing so. You only came up with some rationalization for your insult, (and offering more of the same), after anybody called your crap and offered intelligence for why your insults are offensive.
uh, YES. I find you VERY funny. very. very. funny.
but a waste of my time. that's enough spindled on you.
You think people are missing your "clever" point but they're not. They're just pointing out that what you think is a clever insight is actually just ignorance.
