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...

It's basically coming down to the HEM 2 vs. these Primo 8's! I really can't afford more than the $150 these cost, and I don't want to wait another month or two until these drop again, so I'll probably be ordering the HEM2 for $100/new!
Any reason not to grab the HEM 2 for $100/new/Shipped?

I mainly listen to my own Recordings with Schoeps mics/cables/preamps, and a new SD Mixpre6 recorder, and I ONLY listen to 24 Bit FLACs (24/44.1>24/96 FWIW) through my portable setup, which is:
Sony Walkman NW-A35>FiiO E11K HP Amp>Nuforce EDC IEM's/Monster iSport Victory earbuds, both with Comply Isolation+ and Comfort+ Large memory foam tips!
So I obviously want something that is nice and balanced across the frequency spectrum, that has great clarity and resolution, as well as a decent low-end that is Quick and punchy, and decays quickly! DEFINITELY not something bass heavy like the Beats By Dre are, nor anything with a V-Shaped sound! Oh and an extremely low noise floor as well, so that I can hear the clarity and purity of my Schoeps mics and SD Mixpre6 recorder, which have exceptionally low noise floors as it is!
Thanks in advance for any help yinz can give me LoL 😁
So if anyone thinks that I should avoid the HEM 2, (because of the sound signature that I want and described above), please speak up now, because I plan on buying them with in the next few days hopefully 😎👍🎧
