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...

That said, I have found the Mojo to sound spectacular with any good to excellent headphones, making it worthwhile for me if only to use at home. It’s utility will increase once my Poly wireless streamer arrives, negating the need for the physical/wired connection to the DAP or phone. If you will use the Mojo at home enough, this is a steal. If your main use case is on the go, then you may have connection issues, necessitating that you “double down” and buy the Poly to go with the Mojo. For comparison purposes, I also have the Schiit Bifrost Multibit and find that the Mojo sounds at least as good as that DAC, whether listening through headphones or stereo speakers. At this price, if you need a DAC solely for home use, this is a great deal; if you want to use it on the go, do note that connection issues, unless you pony up for the Poly. And the Poly will solve the need to have the cumbersome wired connection to your phone.
IPhone 6 plus + Mojo= Non compatibility Known RF issues. It would continually disconnect when using Onkyo's HF player, ITunes, Spotify etc.
BTW I also owned the Oppo HA-2SE, same result. Called Oppo, the tech said, YUP, we know, send it back for refund. Was told to buy high end cable with some length and not piggyback both devices, (huh-thought that was the "portable" idea?) turn wifi off, put in airplane mode to fix RF issue. Guess what??? .....that didn't work either!
To bad, great and I mean GR8 fucking DAC! The Mojo not the Oppo. The Mojo blows the Oppo away. If you don't own an IPhone you should be in good shape.
