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...

Integrity takes courage. I hope its only you eventually paying the price for your lack of it, and that you'll at least keep your bile hole shut when the fruit of your 'perspective' comes to kick the fuck out of you, as you've hereby requested.
Your validation of it does not come from the place of laypeople and won't be understood by them as you fully intended.
Which brings two problems even if this is not a clear case. Feeding a general 'who cares' attitude about these issues and dynamics make the shit pile deeper and speeds its growth .
Misunderstood or not your voice if not careful contributes to a massive swath of carelessness corroding and putting under immense pressure the underlying capacity of commercial activity to deliver what is needed from it. It threatens as much or more the stability of all of our political and social frameworks.
The argument for giving you the due you deserve for your creations evaporates if the ethos of respecting anyone's right to personal credit evaporates beneath it.
As do the resources needed to practically and philosophically promote its pairing with financial compensation.
The one which still provides your livelihood however eviscerated it or your ownership of it has become.
Certainly you of all ought not allow your voice to accelerate this dynamic. You more than most have a responsibility to be careful about the way you treat the subject, especially when describing limits of your concern on a general public forum
(This interface is terrible, I'm truncating my reply. )
The basis for your dismissal of the concern is incomplete to the point of being ridiculous- Youd fail that claim just as well for the internal combustion engine or the vacuum cleaner. Bullshit.
Your work may be authored by those up the chain and govt is soft on its property but still your credit doesn't vanish and you still get paid for that work. If the govt weren't held to ethical standards your boss could skip the walk to your cubicle, call up OEM like the one in question and become a gravy cutting hero. You throw others overboard with that attitude while happily protected by standards you mockingly dismiss.
Once youre past the first gig out of school and step into commercial work you'll find a legal department at every serious company busy making sure those signing off your plans and paying your salary aren't being robbed blind. ...so they can continue pay you and feed your kids.
If this bozo snooped around and now intends to walk away with false credit and cash for an implementation carried out by a hobbiest in the service of his community, or worse has sponged and disrupted someone's rightful commercial viability, than for its apathy if not dishonesty and spin alone- or its attempt- this company and his deserve failure and disrepute.
And as an engineer (really now...) whose livelihood depends on what remains of the structures of good faith to pay for work done there is no excuse not to do better for the business that feeds you.
And if you think justifying rounded standards wont bite you because to some extent it's already part of the deal then my naivty is the least youve got to worry about.
Given the relative ease of that argument and the general worldwide concern for this issue they should long have been making it.
They are otherwise keen marketers. Odd they've handled this so incompetently.
Meantime piss ant, frosh week Disappointment, take your disdain and shove it along with your ready categorizations and backward baseball caps up your sorry, disdended ass.
Just a little advance, question everyone and think for yourself. You youngsters can be a little gullible. Socialism doesn't work.
(Lol btw Both socialist and capitalist approaches will certainly fail unless attempted ably and broadly in good faith.
Socialists are currently giving it their very worst shot and your attitude toward this basic provision of capitalist success is not any more helpful. Your perspective and attitude make you an impediment to progress whichever political vantage you take
And only an idiot would needlessly break out assumptions like that.)
This argument is not difficult either way- you'd have spent less effort outlining a proper technical argument and leaving it at that, which would have been appreciated by all. Thats the way the engineers I know handle things like this. Real engineers... lol.
I suspect like your Airest example you aren't really as blase about IP infringement as your post suggested and were caught out by my reaction to your expression.
It takes an adult to admit a mistake, but don't worry, boy. I got your back.
I agree however it would be best to stop.
The support you've garnered is likely predicated on your claim to be an engineer. People are like that.
Whether or not those qualifications are relevent depend on the direction of the argument.
You have not at all sufficiently argued away relevent IP concern for this case on technical grounds despite your qualifications.
Neither is your offer of 'shit happens' inspiring to the dwindling number of human beings decent enough to care about the issue.
If you based that attitude on any applied technical assessment you failed to convey that or as yet prove it.
Given its creep, near ubiquity and its international concern your attitude suggests you either enjoy coming here and playing it cool for laypeople or you are not in fact a person with any stake in the outcome. Or else door number 3, you care but not really.
Given the lack of substantiation you've provided and in light of your attitude whatever it's reasons, in neither case should your opinion on this product be trusted whether you are an engineer as you claim or not. And based on your behaviour I doubt it.
Btw I'm likely old enough to be your father and have connectors that cost more than this. And I was fully interested in buying it.
" Caught buying from an OEM who took it from someone, unbeknownst to Airist...' isnt legally or technically sufficient. Are you an engineer or are you not? Why would you say it? And we're naive are we?
Whose responsibility shall it be then? And what to say of those willing to turn around as they continue the chain?
You'll have noticed this was long over. Making your post still more puzzling
In partial answer you'll recognize my motivation was constructive. And yours...?
