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...

Do these come with any cables, adaptors, and/or accessories other than the power cord?
Also, I noticed the USB input in the back, which would lead me to believe that these must have a DAC. Is this indeed the case? If so, do you have any specs on how it compares with those found in, say, portable headphone amps?
Thanks in advance for the info. I can't wait to hear these in action.
The YU2 features a high quality USB DAC and supports data streams up to 16-bit/48kHz resolution.
Thanks
You really shouldn't have a problem here with sound quality when using a splitter. You are essentially just merging the L/R channel into one audio signal. Just make sure you are using a good quality 3.5mm and/or RCA splitter. The 3.5mm AUX cable we include with the speaker should suffice. We have tested this setup with our own Link RCA splitters and experienced zero loss in quality when using an external DAC.
Thanks,
That being said, I agree with you about it having no noticeable effect. Using a cable with a pair of RCA plugs on one end (for some other DAC) and a standard 3.5mm TRS plug on the other end (for input to the speakers) isn't going to magically introduce noise. :)
