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.

Now you can use the dac on the x1s and use the audio out to another amp or speakers. Yes the dac should* work.
The balanced inputs on your speakers are for use with balanced xlr cables, you'd need a source with balanced xlr outputs to make use of them. The 'balanced' output on the X7S is for use with headphones only, it's not in any way compatible with your speaker's balanced xlr inputs.
Would you even benefit from a balanced connection to the speakers? Are you getting detectable noise over the current connection?
