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'm a noob at this field, and I've been using the one that others recommended. Currently I'm using Beyerdynamics DT990 Premium 600ohm, with um..... Schiit's Modi & Magni. My Modi&Magni passed away a long ago, and thesedays I'm finally concerning to buy a new DAC& Amp.
One of my friends recommended me [Aune X1S] and I found this drop. and here is another thing in it. X7s
So here are my questions
1. Can anybody compare Modi&Magni VS X1s?
2. Is X1S good with DT990 premium 600ohm?
3. So X7s is just an AMP right? How is it different than X1s?
4. Is there any other recommendation in 200~300 dollar price DAC+AMP?
Thanks,..
I don't have a x7s to say for certain, but most people say the improvement is little to none single ended vs single ended, but the true improvement is when using the balanced connection on the x7s.
Your DT990 600 ohm cannot be run balanced because there is suppose to be two connections, one on each side of the headphone and it has to be a detachable cable.
If you had something like 6xx you can buy a balanced xlr sennheiser cable, which is not cheap ($30-$60). There is other headphones that can be balanced like the m1060c or hifiman he-4xx.ect
And what is the Teac unit and tube combo from schiit?
The Teac is here. Look up Teac Look at the Schiit Jotunheim with the integrated DAC for those headphones which are a perfect match.
Are there any reason why u recommended me Jotunheim? Not stacks? Or something with tube like vali?
