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...

The Midnight Blue/Stealth Black paint job on these headphones is an excellent coloring choice by Massdrop & Sennheiser and will maintain these headphones as a limited release and should be seen in person. The packaging is extremely nice with the headphones being contained in foam within a large dark fabric covered hard box with hinges.
The cable length, is a bit on the small side, I think it's around 1.7m long but Sennheiser sell the 3m cable with the 6.5mm plug for around $25 AUD on their online spares store. So if you're using an amp with a 1/4 jack it's easy to get a cable to fit without using the provided adapter.
All in all, besides the ordering issues. Considering these headphones (HD650) are worth $450AUD+ in Australia, to get a pair of these with Sennheisers full international warranty for under $300 AUD is an extremely good deal.
So thank you Massdrop, good job.
