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...

Physical Design and Accessories impression: I appreciate the inclusion of a quality travel case, and that the included 3.5mm cable has 90 degree jacks at both ends. This works really well with the placement of the female input on the back of the left cup. I prefer the 90 degree 3.5mm ends for usage with portable music players, too, so this was very welcome. They look great, although for some reason I didn't expect the "carbon fiber" patterned material on the headphones to be soft. It's basically the same padding material used on the underside of the band. This only disappointed me a very slight amount. The rotating joints for the cans are fairly stiff, but not to the point of being jerky; just stiff enough to avoid easily adapting to new angles on their own. This was a point I read about in a review before purchasing, so it didn't catch me off guard. There is less space for ears in the opening in the center of the earpads than I would have guessed. I don't mean this in a depth sense (the center doesn't press against my ears the way my Monoprice 8323's do), just in an area sense. If your ears are really large, these might be partially "on-ear" rather than over-ear.
