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...

Currently using Muse02 and found that the sound can be much more Vocal oriented, and one of my friend comment is "have the feel of listening to tube amp more than some tube amp" . Highly Recommend owner of O2 who want would like to look for new feel of the O2.
Edit: In addition, also tried O2+Muse02 to drive Massdrop Plus and IE800, which are both absolutely fine.
Muse02 is not cheap even when I get it in Japan last year(2017 Mar), so better save money on just getting 1x Muse02. Cost of additional 2x Muse02 can buy you a lot of other 2channel opamp to try out, which I think you will have more fun and allow you to change opamp to co-operate with different headphone.
Notes for who wanted to run Muse02 on battery: Muse02 use more battery than the stock one (i can't remember, should be NE5532), for me it is still acceptable, charging every 1.5weeks with average 1hour listen daily.
just found the link of the designer comment about differet opamp, most are very low cost. http://nwavguy.blogspot.com/2011/08/op-amp-measurements.html
