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've never heard a Woo, but I'm sort of in that, "I still want the sound of good tubes... without the tubes" area now, which sounds a lot like where you're coming from. Everybody is definitely painting it to be a lot of what I'm looking for, but we'll see. The Black Widow definitely does look like it would be to my liking, but I can't see myself owning one of these at retail, let alone anything Craig sells. His amps have always proved interesting to me, but out of reach. Had the ZDT Jr been less of a big question mark, I may have owned something with an EC badge at least. The Heron seems like it should cover me pretty well for quite some time if all of these reviews hold up though.
My parcel is now showing as being processed at my local postie, it should be at my doorstep any day now, hopefully today!!
Initial impressions it's better than my WA6SE stock, but with my upgraded tubes it wins out in some areas but loses out in others.
Looking forward to a more detailed analysis after you get a little bit of actual time with it though. I’m curious to how a few things pan out relative to reviews I've read...
For now, I'm waiting to see what the Heron does for me, and this potential MD Black Widow is interesting as well, so two potentially fantastic SS amps are higher priority for the time being.
