Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?

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.

Hey can anyone find teardown images of he-300s? I like to find images before i go messing with my stuff but not finding anything maybe if we put more people on this we can find some...........
Found one with cupback removed on Headfonia He-300 review http://www.headfonia.com/hifiman-he-300-the-dynamic-driver/
Ok 24 hours burn in now and finally had an enjoyable session seems the internet radio source I choose had an influence on how sharp these are prysm stage is still too sharp and piercing but djmagradio was cleaner. Had a session where it litterally felt like the melodic highs were dancing on and almost massaging my brain........... not bad...............
