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...

To say I was excited for these is an understatement. I been looking for a pair of IEM's for some time now and believed that since they had a larger housing they should, in theory, provide a larger sound stage. These though fall quite a bit short. Reading through the comments someone stated these provided a mellow feel, and that couldn't be more accurate. There's little to no punch with these and will not get those goosebumps going.
On the positive side these are unbelievably comfortable. I've worn them for 6 hours straight and had no discomfort. One strange thing did occur within the first hour I was testing them, it felt like there was an arc from the IEM to my ear for about 2 seconds. Pretty painful and very strange, but I haven't been able to replicate that occurrence.
I'm happy with these, just not elated. As a second/backup pair these are great. However, if you're like me, and looking for sound quality over look/comfort, the Ostry KC06A's are the way to go. Not only are they cheaper, about $44, but the sound stage blows these out of the water and then some. The Ostry's create that "wow' moment, these... well, they're comfortable and look cool.
