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...

HE4XX - More easy on the listening experience overall. Music sounds more balanced and if I had to use an adjective, fun, to listen to. I had these on the whole day today and have not had any listening fatigue. - Construction is solid, detachable cable is a LOT shorter than the THX00 which makes it easier to carry around. That being said the THX00 cable is extremely long by default
THX00 - Definitely has stronger deeper bass. Playing a track like Melanie Martinez 'Carousel' feels like a subwoofer attached to my ears almost (Love it) - Has more sparkly highs which is probably why I found them a little fatiguing after a while - To me it feels the THX00 have more emphasis on both ends of the frequency spectrum and a little better separation of things when there is a lot going on in the audio - Physically they look more premium with the wood cups
At this stage I can't pick out a clear winner. Also got myself onto the HD6XX drop so New Years will be fun lol
In the past I did have a Beyerdynamic DT990 but that was way too sparkly and sibilant for me. Tried so much to like them but ended up getting rid of them. I also have the Sennheiser IE8 IEMs and will forever love them (Great on planes too).
Received the HD6xx a few weeks ago, a great headphone!
