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...

As far as the sound, I love it! These have the most delicate, detailed sound. Every little nuance of the music comes through. They don't seem to need much power either. I was running them from an Amps&Sound Leeloo and barely even turned on the volume to make them very loud. Also, they seem to sound better at low to medium volume, kind of like Grados do. It lets the lush mid-range and the airy treble shine through without being painful. I don't feel like the bass is lacking, as some have stated. Perhaps it's just a matter of finding the right volume balance. I could see the bass getting overwhelmed by the upper mid-range and treble at high volume.
I'm very happy with these. I was worried about the headband but even with my rather small head, it seems to fit fine. Just a matter of positioning it properly. Certainly is lightweight. The included case is quite nice and I plan to store them in it since it's easy to access and fairly compact.
I had just planned to listen for an hour or so last night to try them out and ended up listening for 4 hours! ...which is about how much sleep I ended up getting as well... oops!
