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...

Secondly the 660S, and I realise these are not the same as the 58X but they were in the shop so i thought why not. These were equally loud using the phone despite the lower impedance. They did sound a lot more clear to me than the 650, perhaps not quite as clear as i had thought they might have been but pretty good. Definitely more detail in the highs. However the bass was really lacking which surprised me. Is this also the case with the 58X? I had read that the 58X has better bass extension than the 6XX but to me, at least through my phone, the 650 had much more pronounced bass than the 660S.
Both clearly offered a much more powerful listening experience than from my current earbuds but I was surprised today, first by the volume and power i got through my phone with the 650's but also with weird muted highs i got with them too, and secondly with the lack of bass in the 660S. I'll probably still order the 58X tomorrow once i've slept on it, they are only $150 after all and if i don't like them i can always sell them. Pete
