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 recently ordered a $65 amp/dac (FX-Audio DAC-X6, currently last day on Massdrop but available on other website, if someone is interested in sub $100 dacs have a look at this one, I picked it for my needs after some research despite scarce reviews) so I hope an external dac will make a difference in the sound when compared to phone/pc internal dacs. Didn't want to spend $200+ for O2 combo since these HifiMANs are $100.. Haven't had a headphone amp/dac or open back hdp yet.
I won't be able to comment on it for some time tho w/ audiophile hdps, until the HE-350 arrive.
