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 pretty new to quality iems. I don't even know if it's stupid to buy this when I currently listen to music using a Sony Xperia Z5 and Google music (320kbps)
I'd hope someone would tell me. Anyway. They look great and I've seen reviews from their previous products. Not as many as I've seen for the more mainstream ones like sennheiser and shure. I'm not sure why that is.
Of course, whether this is an IEM for you or not is difficult to tell, with few reviews around at the moment. My advice is try getting the best IEM you can buy, then upgrade the source later when you feel the need. Unless you are buying a very picky and difficult to drive headphone, I'd say don't worry of your source yet.
Also, there is another one big aspect. It's buying audio equipment only relaying on reviews and some graphics. And let's not forget Gear Acquisition Syndrome which many audiophile are affected with.
