Are the HD6XX cables supposed to be super sensitive?
I recently got the HD6XX and i really like them, but the top part of the cable (the double fork looking thing) is really sensitive and any light touch to their side immediately disables any audio to that part of the headphone. Many times ill type something on the keyboard and lightly touch the top connector and all sound to that side stops. This is easily fixed by sorta tilting it back into place, but im thinking maby get new cables if its not normal. Also the tilting is not to its "shortside" but to the "longside" like it tits toward one of the prongs.

Not normal, but the stock cable for the HD 6XX is garbage. I suggest getting an aftermarket cable (doesn't have to be expensive, and I suggest against something expensive anyhow since they cost more than your headphone).

I suggest replacing the cable, mine refused to work like yours after a short while. Had to juggle it and any slight touch of hand cancels out the noise that got me so irritated, I went on amazon and had it replaced. The original cable is not made to last and definitely not quality material.

Check the cable connections at the headphone. There are a large and small pins, they orient to the corresponding R&L letters, when facing out, firmly seat - fully inserted. Make sure the pin sockets are not all bunged up... old design... The other issue may be a busted wire(s) inside the cable, bad solder joint, that’s a return.

More bass!
I currently have the the HD 6XX, which sound great but, I'm am looking to upgrade the power of the bass as i really enjoy punchy low end EDM music. Any suggestions in the $200-$300 price range would be awesome.

Trying to add Topping LA90D amp to Topping A9D preamp
Any help would be appreciated...I added an amp to my streamer, dac, headphone amp/preamp system and am now not getting any music through the headphone jacks on the preamp - the specifics: Wiim Pro Plus - optical connection to - Topping D50 iii dac - TSR to XLR connection to - Topping A9D headphone amp/preamp (all worked fine as a headphone amp until I tried adding:) - XLR connection to - Topping LA90 D amp. Amp switches are set to bypass, stereo, low gain. In this configuration, I am not getting any music to either my SE or XLR headphone jacks. I made sure I switched the A9D to "preamp" and "xlr" modes. I have no idea what I might be overlooking or missing...any thoughts would be deeply appreciated! Thank you.

Mic not working pc38x
I just got my pc38x in the mail today and the out put is quiet but fine and I'm happy. But the mic will not work when on my Xbox series and I was wondering if this issue can be resolved or if the head set is not compatible with Xbox.
