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...

iGrenade, your description of SBX reminds me very much of how TVs are often set up in stores for consumer comparison. They are very bright, ultra vivid, trying to show off their feathers via stunning image quality, etc...while at first this is visually pleasing to the eye, it would be tiring in a home setting where you'd want things toned down a bit for more natural viewing.
regarding the nfb-15: it's like mail order except through email. you contact them to get a quote of the unit + shipping cost. once they give you the total, you reply to confirm the order and pay through paypal or through bank account transfer. they recommend you to use paypal but you're responsible for the small fee paypal charges. paypal is very buyer-biased so i'm not worried, and audio-gd's reputation is good on reddit/head-fi.
support from what i've heard is also good. they have a rep at head-fi (kingwa) that is very active on the forums. the language barrier isn't really a big issue, it's mostly just their poor grasp with grammar/syntax. the only real issue is like i said any returns/warranty repairs will have to be shipped back to china. depending on the situation, they might comp the return shipping fee if you show them the bill. for more on their return/warranty policies: http://www.audio-gd.com/Warranty-EN.htm
