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...

Anyway, I would trust people who listened to countless different headphones than you who has only listened to one set of headphones for 7 years (!). So, I don't believe everything you said.
To correct what you said, no the sonic effect of sound card is minimal when compared to the design of the headphones and a proper amp. Most high end headphones can run great with decent sized files and properly pushed with the amount of power.
I, however, purchased these because I do not currently own any AKG K/Q 7-- series headphones. And based on reviews, at $199, the K7XX seems to offer the best combination of comfort, sound quality, and price, of the 7-- series. 712's are $315, all others are between $200-$250, and these have better pads than those. Simple as that.
I do really love when someone has a rant about something they know nothing about. What a waste of your time....
