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...

Add to that the fact that I live in Europe (meaning import taxes, and high shipping costs in case I need to use the lifetime warranty), and the way Massdrop/Koss are handling this (the cable that silently disappeared for example), and the fate of that drop is sealed for me... Stax SRS-3100 are not that much more expensive either...
I will wait till massdrop clarifies the situation in a next drop, and potentially offer the headphones and amp as separate items, a stax adaptation cable, and other more uptodate amp options...
Just my .02€, your mileage may vary...
