Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?

The word "broken" is most used word describing this model.
There are apparently 2 versions of this. Older version with material of "wrong recipe", and a newer version that "corrected this".
Guess which version is being dumped here. Why were they sitting in a warehouse?

"Packaging change". Always learn something new everyday.
