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 used my A2s with a sub, but it involved basically splitting the signal at the source. In my case, I used a stereo headphone y-adapter on the source's output -- one end fed the minijack input on the A2s, the other fed a minijack-to-stereo-RCA cable to the subwoofer's low-level inputs. Problem with that is that you must set the volume on both the speakers and the sub to your liking so that they're balanced, then use only the volume on the source to adjust your master volume for daily listening.
Not really that big of a deal, since the A2's rear-mounted volume knob is hard to get at anyway, so most people already control the volume at the source instead. But you will probably need that y-adapter and the minijack-to-RCA cable. Any good nerd will have those on hand already.
Also: The A2s sound amazing with a sub. Any sub. So get one.
