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.

I'll await Massdrop to update us on what to do about RMA. I figure those of us affected will have to wait for the next batch to be available before we can get ours repaired (replaced) in the mean time I'll continue using them just skip over any bass heavy songs... Sucks that even my cheap Philips SHP9500 (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/philips-shp9500-headphones) and my favorite Audio-Technica ATH-M50x (https://www.massdrop.com/buy/audio-technica-ath-m50x-headphones) can handle the audio test with no issues.
@Massdrop if you start a list of those affected by the rattle add me to it and keep us in the loop!
