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've sent an email out to the CAD support to see if there can be any resolution with this which is clearly a widespread issue.
These mics have a designated pole pattern, meaning if you are speaking into it from above or too far to the side, it will not pick up your voice. I would recommend alternating your placement and position in relation to the microphone if you haven't already.
That being said, CAD wants to ensure that everyone gets what they wanted: a great microphone!
There will be an update from them soon, so please check back periodically.
