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...

P. S. I sympathise with all of those whose lost copious amounts of money from Trinity, however I'm not sure Bob bashing with no evidence is the right thing to do.
quote: "His "crime" was pretending that it was essentially his company the whole time, acting that he was finally making the headphones he always wanted to make, lying to everyone many many times about production and delivery, switching his story immediately when he started IMR (about how he was just a contractor and he wasnt involved in any of the fiasco and that now he truly was going to make the iems he wanted) and then mailing customers based off a trinity mailing list." Btw. , this was the photo of the Bob's desk during his time at Trinity.
And this accusation has been made plenty times. He already stated he used the same platform as on Trinity. Again, speculation.
Even the compelling argument of addresses and and whos name was on what, is only partial information. Again No one knows what that actually means. You can make an educated guess, a compelling connection. But still not full facts. Just lots of partial facts or truths and lots assumptions
"no one knows what that actually means", "still not full facts" ? This gigantic thread at headfi, where the "designer" went out, according to headfiers, all of that well documented on that thread, with deadlines and guarantees even from xxxx about deliveries (never fulfilled), etc, - all of that is only in domain of "assumptions", and the xxxx's former company forced someone to knowingly participate in all of that, repeatedly ? Repeatedly, for so many months now ? Really ?
laughable - meanwhile I will continue to enjoy the awesome IMR R1✊️
Now, to the "story": there have been a numerous customers who have payed for their orders and never got them delivered, nor they have ever been communicated (to) in any credible manner why, from the company. People have been fed clear misinformation repeatedly, instead, as answer(s).
Everyone's involvement in the whole story has been well and clearly documented at headfi.
Make no mistake about this, it has been described in no unclear nor uncertain terms, too many times, with details. Promises broken too many times about not only deadlines, but real products, payed with real money from the real customers, never delivered. Again, none of this has been detached from anyone involved in this "business activity" while all of it was ongoing, according to the history of the events - even at the thread at headfi.
You or anyone else has zero credibility even in slightest attempt to deny or dismiss that as "laughable", as you have chosen to call it.
All of that might be laughable to you; being, on the other hand, on the receiving end of that "laughable thing" would probably not be as funny... but hey, as long as it is someone else, then some people can just somehow shift the standard of what is acceptable or ok. As long as they are not at the receiving end, of course. All of what happened was not going on over one day, not over one month, not over one instance, but over a long period of time, in sustained activities, assurances (repeatedly) about deadlines for shipping the items, never fulfilled, without valid or honest explanation, number of times, over many months. With - again - well known written statements and involvement. Laugh it all you wan't, that is the reality and hard facts. People at headfi and company's customers were not and are not imagining any of it. Ask them how many confirmation of payed orders they have - and not received their items, to this day, and laugh then, if that suits your moral.
Some people have been waiting for over a year of year and a half, if I am not mistaken, for items, and still not received them. God knows (and the company) how many. What more do you need ? How about one product, advertised and conceived, never delivered, never shown as finished in pictures, never shipped, never received by anyone who has ordered it ? That also never happened or is less or not true, since it has not gotten to the court - yet ??? I have also quoted, clearly, what one retailer has experienced, this is not something people spit out just for fun. Go on all you like in trying to deny what has been happening over a long period of time, those attempts by both you and the likes of similarly inclined individuals won't and cannot change the dry facts. You might need to re-read the retailer's story - if you have not chosen to turn your head away (or put it somewhere where it might belong judging from your, very cynical attitude, having in mind clear facts stated by numerous people clearly cheated of their money) and decided not to read it or ignore it completely - prior to your "answer". The story (among many other stories of the customers who have ordered individual items) - was this time about bunch of empty pouches delivered from the company, for the mass order from the retailer, with two figures and three zeroes in magnitude, in real money.
Stating that there has not been a case in the court - yet - as an "excuse" that should supposedly counter numerous customers' experiences, who simply never got the items they have payed for and got confirmations about orders made, and even shipped repeatedly, but never arrived, company's website being taken of shopify (who do you think that has happened ? ), only to never reappear anywhere, and this rather disgusting case of that order made by retailer - and that is very real person we are talking about - that statement of yours should be some kind of attempt to prove that all of those people are simply liars that have decided, just for fun, to turn on the company that they have wholeheartedly once supported and did put their trust in ? And then you chose to put it right in the face of all of those people - how you enjoy your IMR R1s - some sort of your rhetorical laugh in the face of all of those people, and your (in)direct acclaim of someone's - anyone's deliberate and conscious involvement in all of those "business" activities and of the manner in which all of that has been done? That fist-smiley in the end - some sort of spite ? For what ?
Or is the problem here that some people here have got the IEMs (or perhaps their "business activities or affiliations") so far down their ear channels (if not up somewhere else) that it has perhaps started to affect some brain activities ?
I feel for those who were ‘ripped off’ I’ve been in that position myself recently.
As far as I’m concerned I bought a product at a good price, received said product, was protected should it not arrive. Even if I had looked into Trinity before I still would’ve bought the IMR.
I never once laughed at people’s experience with Trinity. I never doubted the fact they had lost money on a product however that is not my concern. The court case comment was in response to the comments around the ex employee who now runs IMR. As far as I‘m aware it is Trinity who didn’t fulfil the orders.
I assume that all your purchases you make are highly moral and you check the background of every company you buy from to ensure that they or somebody involved with them hasn’t been involved in something shady in the past! Or that they don’t use child or slave labou? That would rule out purchases from the majority of major players in many fields. I highly doubt it somehow.
My point about purchases is nothing to do with my own morals, my morals are clear, I have not preached at people telling them what they should or shouldn't buy. It's called choice and if I want to defend that choice then I will.
The morals issue is actually very valid. You and others imply that people are wrong to buy from IMR. Why exactly? because somebody was involved as an employee in a venture that went wrong. Now here is the valid part, I assume from your high moral vantage point that every item you buy whether it be a pint of milk or a new TV, you are able to say that it was produced in an environment where the worker was paid a fair wage and not slave or child labour. If you bought from any mainstream chain superstore then this is highly unlikely.
Why shouldn't I gladly do business with IMR? They are not Trinity!
' You have certainly done that for reason, and an obvious one, to anyone here. ' What does this even mean?? Makes no sense to me. Only reason I posted initially was to inform people that the IMR is an excellent earphone, and that despite the scaremongering on Massdrop and obvious attempts to dissuade people from buying the product that others and myself have had no issues.
'Your moral and your choices have nothing to do with the matter at stake here, - child labour and such was the point raised by you, as well as the choices everyone is making. Why are you projecting that now, all of the sudden, on others - well, only you know that, but it is really laughable at this point.' Of course it matters,you and others have implied that people are morally wrong to buy from IMR, makes my point perfectly valid. The earphone is a luxury item, an item bought with disposable income or credit, not a required for living product. If people are going to call into question my morals over a item then I can and will do the same over everyday essential items such as food etc.
To be honest I'm not a defender of Bob, IMR, Trinity or any other company, what I am defending is that I will not be slated for buying a product just because people have had a bad experience with the previous company.
People do not want to see someones involved in taking money of them and disappearing doing the business with massdrop or elsewhere - shopify did take their webpage down. Open your eyes for once.
Perhaps you meant, but it went somehow lost in translation, that all of those people would have liked to dissuade Massdrop, retailers. or any serious business from promoting someone with the track record as shown by numerous post here ? Does the shopify action and website taken down ring any bells here, among other things ?
I have not distorted your posts,I could easily argue you have done so to my posts though. The fact you use the term 'pal' the way you have actually shows you for the type of person you probably are.
I'll leave you to your keyboard warrior fun and games. This has got boring.
I know what you were addressing and I likewise was addressing the issue that it is a different company delivering stock with no issues.
Simple really.
No doubt you retort and turn it back tome though.
Deliberately diffusing the issue and accusing others of what you yourself do - before anyone has talked to you, has mentioned you or written to you, it does really make you a subject for laughs. You have cling to one of my posts initially, untill after that I have never had any conversation with you nor addressed you.
And, yes, I am waiting for any proper evidence that Trinity was not Bob. There are posts by Bob at headfi claiming otherwise, so try to prove yourself that is it not so.
I've not said people are lying about not getting products from Trinity. The alleged parts are to do with Bob, you say he was Trinity but I see no evidence of this.
Simple really.
You have said that there is no proof of Bob and Trinity and IMR being what they are, people claim otherwise. You - deliberately not seeing or reading the posts written by Bob himself, and by others citing that - is your own choice, not mine or anyone else's.
Simple really.
As for the remark about "making no sense" and being "about to explode"; well, congrats, I guess you said it really all there about your involvement in the activities here.
Again my only involvement here is to try and put across a balanced view for those thinking of buying the R1. There is no issue, they exist and they sound awesome, even more so using the balanced cable from the DX200.
Evidence please otherwise it’s just make believe 🤥
One other thing - those who contacted their banks regarding the credit card withdrawal from the Trinity for items never delivered (Bob being the part of it, as a willing and fully responsible and aware participant and part of the affairs, this is the fact that can be easily proven if needed) have been advised in every instance, from the bank(s) to report the issue to the police. I feel that I don't have to explain this further to you, if you are capable to think and draw some conclusions.
Im turning nothing upside down, merely pointing out as I’ve done from the start that if people use credit card through PayPal they will have protection should anything go wrong.
Anyway I’ll concede to you and say I’m very very very very very sorry for buying earphones that you don’t approve off.
The point does not have to be the ownership, to begin with, but exactly the level of involvement, and it was stated numerous times to be deep and continuous.
Yes, you are repeatedly, consciously, turning what others write, upside down, and consciously twisting and coming with erroneous statement on both the issue at stake, as well as what others write and mean. You are also trolling in some posts in between.
I repeat that you have been the one who has addressed my post first; prior to that I have had no contact with you here.
You have been pointing out paypal 180 days (not 6 months, check your facts) policy. I have stated that people have been waiting for more than 1 1/2 year for the items, but I was wrong, there are actually people waiting for 2 years. Those are two very separate issues, and you are failing repeatedly to realize that, knowingly or not, less important. Whether any of those people pulled the paypal doesn't change the fact about items never delivered and persons' involvement in all of that. It does not change the fact about the issue of who the Massdrop and all of the parties involved here are dealing with, and if Massdrop should align with the marketing and sales of the products in the light of what has happened to a good number of customers earlier.
Try not to concede anything to me, I am not at all interested in that. Whether you concede some things to yourself is your own business as well, as well as what kind of relation you are establishing with your surroundings (whatever they might be).
I don’t need to check my facts regarding paypal, I made no mention of timescales. Paypal may well only be 180 days but credit card is longer, using the credit card, either on its own or through PayPal. You have made comments regarding my purchase but l’ll leave it there so you can fight another battle elsewhere, it’s been fun😂😂😂
I queried the address out of interest as I know that part of the country and people from that town, once again very very sorry for doing that. Not sure what your issue is with that to be honest. I use smileys etc because I can. Once again very sorry 😐
What is more important is that other - informative stuff is mentioned here, specially stuff regarding the Trinity and IMR, because we can, because we consider that we should, and because it is thread meant for info. Once again, very sorry and apologies to your sense of freedom and apologies to your choice of seeing other's "moral".
I‘m still here as usual saying the R1 is awesome and people should buy them. One of the best earphones in the market especially at the price they are selling for.😂

Still not trolling though.
Could argue you are though.
You have a strange sense of disgusting and repulsive if this thread is your yardstick.
