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'm currently waiting on a Topping Stack to compare.
Not pictured: Audeze isine10s that I keep in my bag for walks around.
Can you describe the sound !
Because I have Magni 2 and NFB-11.28 and I want to buy the Darkvoice tube amp for my HD6XX’s
However, I also listen to metal, punk and electronic music more frequently so I've been reaching more for the 4xx since I got it.
For me, I prefer the 4xx (luckily I've had no build quality issues other than the headband stitching being a little crooked).
To me, 6xx with the Magni 2 is great, but the bass isn't as satisfying as with the Darkvoice. But, you get more of the highs with the Magni 2, since this is a brighter sounding amp from my experience.
I think it's worth trying tubes with the 6xx, and the Darkvoice is a great value when it's on drop here for $199 USD.
I‘ve heard that rolling the op amp in the A30 makes the instrument separation even better. I may try it though it’ll double the price of the amp.
Overall, I’d recommend the Topping stack especiallily since you can score it for under $200 or sometimes under $175.
If you wanted an all In one dac amp and like the size and portability of the nano iDSD BL, it’s good on its own! Magni 2 Uber is a great amp also. Haven’t tried Magni 3
