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.

What wired headphones are good particular for movies and why?
(not looking for headphones specifically made for movies but audiophile headphones that are suited for more enjoyable movie experience)
Long Question with Context
My entertainment What qualities, measurements, characteristics do I needed to look for in wired headphones that will be best for immersion, scale, and 3d/surround sound impact listening specifically for movies? I watch movies exclusively through my desktop pc. The audio setup I run with my pc is no eq software but a Drop O2/Grace Dac inline with a Drop THX AAA 789 with one headphone the Drop Sennheiser 6xx. The 6xx are great for my music and browsing internet content but for watching movies I want more depth, scale and immersion. I understand the basics of headphones,amps, and dacs so I have maybe a theory with that knowledge what would be better headphone for movies for me but not sure. I believe I am looking for headphone with wide and good sound stage but retaining detail and texture. Two headphones that I am considering that may be what I am after are Hifiman 5xx(wide sound stage) or Hifiman 6xx(not generally the widest sound stage for planar but wider than a 6xx but Sundara very much is planar version of 6xx just with planar soundstage at not as resolving or intimate vocals ) Thoughts?
