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.

Admittedly, nearly all of the current brands, that are not mentioned by Adama, are actually manufactured by the same companies as mentioned. For example the New Senor corp manufacturers tubes for ElectroHarmonix, Sovtek, Svetlana and makes the Mullard re-issues and Tungsol. Some of these are made at the same plants some are made at alternate plants with different tooling. For example the Sovtek and the Mullard re-issue do not use the same tooling and are not made at the same plant. In other cases, Gold Lion/Pm Tubes, Groove tubes, Ruby Tubes, Northern Electric, Psvane .... these are all tubes manufactured by the mentioned firms or by the Chinese firms but they all pass a bunch for tests to select for noise, microphonics, gain, etc. So, often, the consistence is better than just buying straight standard issue from the manufacturer. What i am trying to say is that there are many options in the 6DJ8/6922/7308 family to choose from if we want a drop for one of them.
