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...

Also do most people use the Onkyo HF Player? Or is there a better alternative.
Looking at the connections on the Schiit gear, and wondering how it hooks up ideally, I assume a Y connector from the lightning dongle to headphone jack.
If you don't want to hook your phone up to the Amp all the time get a Chromecast Audio and stream your FLAC via Plex. I do it and it works wonderfully.
This is why I bought the non DSD NX4.
Maybe the DSD has been updated to support iOS. But I see no indication of that on the Massdrop listing.
Make sure to update post and let us know if cable works with NX4 DSD.
So this confirms that the Topping NX4 DSD does not require a CCK cable to pair with an iphone. It just requires a regular DAC OTG cable as long as it is not designed specifically for the FiiO Q series units. The attached picture is full resolution so the part numbers for the Meenova cables should be legible.

The older Meenova cables were much more flexible than the newer ones. The reason Meenova updated the cable was because there was an iOS update which made the earlier cables non-functional with some iphone/dac combinations. For the Topping NX4 DSD both styles work fine with the iPhone. I like the earlier cable because of its flexibility; if you can find one somewhere, buy it. If not the newer one works just fine.
