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...

1) The shipping service to Canada cost US$25, but I had to pay another CDN$30 for taxes and handling. That's CDN$62 more! I could have just driven across the border for $5 worth of gas (and filled up with cheaper gas too). They never make me pay tax with less than $200 of stuff coming back across the border. I definitely won't be using this forwarding service again.
2) The vacuum tube in my unit is pushed off to the right side of the circular hole. It seems to be working just fine, but I would prefer if it were properly centered! Also, the unit comes with this pretty sad "User Manual" that looks like it was copied on an old photocopier that was low on toner. The "manual" doesn't mention anything about how to remove or replace the vacuum tube. The box art is also very low resolution. If the company cares so little about these things it makes me wonder how much they care about the product itself.
At least so far the unit is working properly and sounds pretty good. Fingers crossed.
