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.

I find the Beyerdynamic DT-880 Premiums to be super comfortable. I also just got a pair of Hifiman HE-400i's, and find them to be great too. Large, soft pads and relatively low clamping force.
Open back headphones are typically more comfortable than closed back because they allow your ears to breathe a bit (I had a pair of HD-280s at a previous job, and they sounded nice but got super hot after a while).
I also tend to prefer velour pads to leather or synthetic.
