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...

Warranty is not something Hifiman believes in. Every time I've contacted them (in the warranty period) they wanted to hear nothing of it.
Why do I keep buying them? I don't, except for the RE-400 which can sometimes be found for $49. It's a fantastic sounding IEM, comparable to my $400 Shure's, and for $49 they're expendable so I don't mind exchanging them every 6 months to a year.
This drop is stupid. Stupid good.
Differences between them? I remember the RE-0 as slightly less smooth. A bit grainier maybe, but that could be a biased mind talking. I think the RE-400 sounds a little better, but not much. The RE-00 is a steal at this price.
They both sound classes better than the FIIO EX1/DUNU Titan 1 I just bought. At a lower price too. But don't expect the best build quality.
I'm intrigued in the description that says they have revised the cable for better durability. Perhaps it could be time to give them another try....
