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...

That said, the other thing that I noticed going back and forth from the Emotiva to the Topping is that the Topping does amazingly well for a $100 amp. It's far more forgiving with rounding sibilant highs without sounding veiled. It has a slightly narrower sound stage but the quality of the sound on the whole is neutral to slightly warm and on point. Personaly I'm not looking for clinical listening, I'm looking for musical listening. The Topping A30 and D30 are really an incredible value in this regard. I highly recommend. I have the Topping DX7s on the way because I wanted to try the 6xx's balanced and I'm starting to wonder if maybe I'm getting to the point of just chasing my tail. We'll see.
Just wanted to share my experience. Hope someone finds it helpful.
