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...

These were my endgame IEM's, and now I'm so hooked on the CA IEM's, I'm looking at grabbing a pair of the CA Dorado hybrid IEM (one DD and 2x BA Drivers). I will admit that at first I was having trouble getting them to stay in and fit comfortably, but since I just got my Comply TX-400 tips with Waxguard, I am enjoying them VERY much all the way around, and I wouldn't NEED to buy ANYMORE IEM's for many years to come.
But I do like the hybrid design of the Dorado's and will probably grab a pair after I pay for the Andromedas, and I'm looking at grabbing a pair of the MD+ as well, just to round out my collection!
Like I said, I'm MAINLY listening to my own high resolution 24bit FLACs, and I couldn't be any happier with the Andromedas. They're everything that I was hoping for and MORE! So basically what I'm saying is, unless you plan on collecting a bunch of different IEM's, I'd just save up for what you REALLY want and buy them from the get go, rather than doing what I did and start with the $60 Nuforce EDC's, then the Primo 8's ($150), then 2x pairs of the Westone UM Pro 30's $250 for the G1 and $400 for the G2), just to end up at the Andromedas ($1,100 new) anyway, which I wanted to buy from the start. So now I'm using the Primo 8 for my Recording gear bag, and one pair of the Westone IEM's in my car full-time with a Dessicant Pod, and the other pair of them stay in my backpack for work. And then I keep the Andromedas at home mostly. But I could've saved hundreds of dollars in the end if I would've reached for the stars from the beginning. I love the Andromedas so much because I wanted the Absolute BEST resolution and details from my live recordings, as well as being fun sounding and having a good low-end that can thump when it calls for it, as well as great treble Extension to give it a bigger feeling soundwise, so I picked the perfect IEM's for my wants and needs, so figure out what is important to you in regards to the sound and go from there.
I also like that these are 100% made in the USA, just like my Andromedas are. That means a LOT to me, and is a huge reason I'll end up grabbing a pair of these eventually.
Best of luck with your IEM searching and I hope that you end up finding the right pair for you too!
