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...

I do not understand why people are doing a comparison with the 6XX.Apples to oranges,dynamic vs planar.A better comparison is the older version of the 400i/400s/LCD2 and the 1060.
Update after 35+ hours of burn in:Wonderful headphones.Bass got a bit more weight,soundstage got wider,but highs still rolled off tad too quickly.Rolled some Mullard and Sovtek tubes on the Decware and these headphones like the British tubes,more warmer mids and tad more richness.These are not for boomy bass or hyper detail lovers though but a truly well balance headphones.In fact I like them better than the LCD 2 which I owned years ago and much better than the 400i's which the driver is derived from.Leaving the pads as is since they are so comfortable but changing the cables which is definitely the weak part.Like to thank Massdrop and HifiMan for fabulous drop.
