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...

- A factory that is capable of producing the wire in that method, which is rather complicated and involves very expensive machinery in order to mass-produce it.
- It needs to be certified and authorized by the patent holder.
There's maybe 2-3 factories worldwide who has the certification and the ability of mass producing OCC wires, I know that Wan Lung are supplying most OCC on the market to most high-end cable makers, there's also Neotech who has great UPOCC copper and UPOCC silver, and maybe Cardas has it as well I'm not really sure but he's got great UP copper wires nonetheless. You can contact them and ask what would be the price for a 100m spool. As far as I know it's somewhere between 600~1300 bucks depends on the wire material. And don't forget that it's a single core, so for a 1 meter cable you need 4 meter of wire at least for a balanced 4 core wire. so from a 100m spool in practice you only have 25m cable. Now add the connectors, braiding work, labor, and you can understand why these real UPOCC wires cost hundreds of dollar as a finished product. 95% of these so called "OCC" cables on AE, eBay, and apparently here too are FAKE. That's why I ALWAYS recommend to check what is under the hood, and by that I mean to know who's the wire's actual producer.
