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...

That $300 price is for the standard LD MK IV, not the SE version.
MD's price would be better than Amazon's but worse than LD's even with the shipping difference factored in ($49 from ebay, $11.06 from MD) --
*if* the SE and standard models were one and the same, which they are not.
"The Little Dot MK IV SE is a special edition version of the Little Dot MK IV which features a Neutrik headphone jack upgrade, premium RCA connectors (American CMC or Van Den Hul RCA), and premium circuit component upgrades in key signal path locations. The SE version also replaces the normal MK IV vacuum tubes with M8100/CV4010 driver tubes and 6H30PI (Gold-Pin) power tubes."
"The appearance of both versions is virtually identical with only the following differences: "SE version has label "Little Dot MK IV SE" instead of "Little Dot MK IV" on the front panel. "SE version has Neutrik-branded headphone jack "SE version has American CMC or Van Den Hul branded RCA jacks "SE version ships with different driver and power vacuum tubes
DABTPA: What is the price difference between the Little Dot MK IV and the Little Dot MK IV SE on eBay?
LD seem not to be offering an SE model on eBay currently.
I'm seeing the SE model for about $455 (not including $60 shipping!) from other eBay sellers.
Since the person who represents LD is named David, I mistakenly interpreted the first letter in your username to be the initial for his first name in and the username itself to be an initialism (which it still might be); when you mentioned distribution and gave your email address to those who wanted more information, I assumed you did that because you represented the company. Unfortunately, I read those parts of the post without marking this bit islanded in asterisks:
"No retail distribution. However, ****based on the Little dot 1+ and Mark 3 I have owned****, this should be better than fine. If you want more info, email me at dabjhs72@msn.com"
What's clear now is that you're a customer who is very satisfied with the LD amps you've owned and have generously offered to help people (via e-mail) on your own time.
As I said, my mistake.
Second, my question is not whether the SE offered here costs $131.05 more than you paid (if enough people commit at $419). It's whether the SE version can be bought at Massdrop's current price (or less) anywhere else.
If it can, then people might want to skip this drop. If it can't, then those who didn't get in on that deal might have to adjust their expectations accordingly.
My open question about comparative pricing is not one that I expect you in particular to answer. It's a question that I'd hope anyone who was interested in this drop would ask themselves.
