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 hope that Massdrop doesn't assume that other plugins won't sell well, in the case that this doesn't sell well. For being the first plugin on Massdrop, it is rather unpopular, and that's the nice way of putting it. Of course, that doesn't speak to it's quality, to be clear. It's just that, for giving plugins a fair shake before closing the door on them, Massdrop should try selling something popular from a popular company.
This plugin is very interesting to me and I would buy from an unpopular company, of course, but I honestly don't believe that enough information has been given for what is going on "under the hood" in this plugin. Engineers and hobbyists- The ones who know what they are doing enough for it to be worth it to buy multiple plugins- are generally pretty curious people. They want to know what is going on under the hood. They want to know the signal flow or have some idea of it. In the Gearslutz announcement post, linked by Varholiaglimp (thanks for the URL), you can see potential customers asking and wondering what the plugin is doing, but they are answered with an assertion explaining what the entire machine does. This will not convince many engineers and hobbyists, with there being some products out there that do things they can do without spending a dime.
