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...

I always feel a great responsibility when I share my thoughts on something that I own or have heard. My desire is to help others, share, & contribute back to the community in a fair/productive way that adds to the collective knowledge.
After starting with a review or two, my audiophile journey led me to organizing meets so that people could try things out for themselves. (Okay, here's my work on one review waaay back in 2011: http://www.head-fi.org/t/553669/monster-challenge-review-turbine-pro-coppers-mobile-warning)
We can't always try everything we are interested in, so what we are able to read online can be quite important. I'm very appreciative of the people who help point me in the right direction for better listening through their reviews and impressions. There can be a lot of work involved when listening for others and trying to test for the combinations and scenarios that others can run into.
But what is the best way to share experience and help others?
QUESTION: What does a good review look like?
What's the best structure/format? (Should a review start with a short summary…or refrain from spoiling the ending? Should there be a rating system such as "x out of 10"?)
What do you think makes a good review???
Oh, and thanks for sharing. :)
