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...

I experienced a failure with my Little Dot Mk II today. I was listening to my 6XX at pretty low volume (10:00 on the dial approximately) when the volume completely cut out... I turned the volume way up and barely heard the sound, though it was just barely there...
What I did to debug:
0. turned power off and then back on to the source, dac, and little dot. No difference 1. tried different headphones. No difference (not the headphones) 2. moved the source to my O2 amp - works perfectly (not the source) 3. changed out my tubes to the stock tubes (the small ones, not the big ones since I had not rolled those) - no difference
My Little Dot is only approximately 4 months old and barely gets used (a couple of hours every other week), and always at low volume.
Anyone have suggestions?
Good advice, and I greatly appreciate you taking the time to respond to my post!!
I will do just as you advise and check out the caps to see if any have shorted out.
Thank you!!
