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...

CE--one more connection question; I am all analog...my BD player feeds my preamp vs 6 analog cables and then 6 more to my amp (inexpensive awesome cables here btw): http://www.cs1.net/products/canare/LV-61S_precision_SACD.htm .
If i connnect to the CX via optical/coax out of my BD player vs keeping it ALL analog using RCA connectors (from my preamp)...would there be a sonic difference? Do the RCA inputs accept 24/192 material the same way the digital/usb connectors do? Bottom line; how can i best get the 24/192 signal my BD puts out over to the headphones fully intact?
One more thing--one review said there was a speaker popping surge when selecting inputs on the front. Was that an anomaly or definitely been fixed?
It won't matter what the digital format was when using RCA input (i.e. 24/192) because the signal will have already been converted to an analog signal.
So no, the RCA inputs do not accept material the same way the digital inputs do.
The best way (in my opinion) to get your BD audio through the DACmini is via a digital connection, preferably SPDIF/coax.
