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...

The Mojo (and all the other Chord DACS) do not use an off the shelf chip. Instead they use field programmable gate array chips and implement the conversion in software. My DAC at home, a PS Audio Directstream does the same thing, implement the conversion totally in software. Chord and PS Audio use different approaches, but both believe they can do a better job by writing their own conversion instead of using a chip. So I have really wanted to try the Chord. You can find many very positive reviews. Most seem to feel it offers outstanding value for money.
This is pure conjecture but I suspect the Mojo is capable of getting everything out of the phones that is possible. Only you and your budget can decide whether it is worth it to you. I am traveling mid week, but should have a more informed opinion by the end of the week.
They have them here for 459 usd.
I thought these would have more bass :( They are good headphones do not get me wrong, just assumed it would have more balls.
Mojo to be delivered tomorrow.
