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...

Edit: Don't feel too bad, I decided I wanted them after the drop ended. ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ
Very much so looking forward to them arriving. Got a set of Venture balanced cables waiting for them, even.
I've been stalking the website every day as well for either these or the new TH-X00 Purpleheart's with the removable cable. I tried emailing Chan at E-MU, but he hasn't responded and it's been 6 days so far, so I might just have to wait until the next drop.
What are you upgrading from? I'll be upgrading from a pair of Ultrasone Pro 2500's that I've had since Aug 09.
My current daily drivers are Fostex T50RP Mk3 (amazing cans for the price) with Brainwavz angled cups, and Massdrop x Hifiman He4xx (also great, but not suitable for rooms with other people). With the Massdrop x Sennheiser HD6xx and HD58x on the way (for shits and giggles).
I expect the Teak will get a lot of use. The Foster drivers in them are just bright enough for my listening preferences.
