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'm currently listening to Beethoven Symphony No. 7, Minnesota Orchestra - Osmo Vänskä, cond. The equipment I'm using is an Onkyo C-7030 CD Player feeding a Shiit Audio Vali 2 headphone amp.
This is an orchestra with which I'm very familiar and attend concerts regularly. That is to say I know their sound and the characteristics of their performancs.
The HD 6XX's are absolutely faithful to the sound and clarity one experiences at Orchestra Hall. Principals, in solo passages, are heard with the exact same timbre and sonic nuances as one hears in live performances. The sound stage is perfectly presented and the articulation is stunning. This is the most faithful reproduction I have ever experienced with headphones.
Some may prefer a more clinical reproduction, however I'm attracted to the sonic sumptuousness of these phones. There is no loss of clarity or detail in the performance of theses fine musicians. I find the frequency range to be exceptionally well balanced. Nothing jumps out with exaggerated force.
All in all, these are virtuoso headphones to enjoy virtuoso performances.
I think you will all enjoy your 6XX experiences.
