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...

Maybe somebody can help me with advice regarding my need and a recomendation of a good amp for my particular set up. I just bought myself a pair of DT 770 Pro 80 ohms to be used mostly on my PC for streaming and listening to music etc. I have an external sound card with dac and built in amp (Asus Xonar U7). While this card can get my dt’s to an uncomfortably loud levels, I dont feel like there is enough bass coming out of my cans (I heard that the 80s supposed to be really bassy, but even my Logitech X-550 speakers, which are very far from being and audiphile piece of equipment give me a much punchier lows).
Also, I tried using my dt’s with my pixel xl, and the sound is super quite and bass is non-existent. I am not planning to be using the dt‘s on the go a lot, but I am getting the koss porta pro massdrop eddition whenever they will be shipped to me from md around December.
So tl;dr, is it worth it getting an amp for my dt’s, and is it going to improve the bass compared to my asus xonar u7? If so, will this be a decent amp for my purposes or can you recomend something I ahould get instead in the under 100$ range? Will the porta pros benefit from an amp?
Thanks
