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...

I just ordered a red a pair of Oppo PM3, which have plenty of mid but is more lacking in the highs and lows... now I'm wondering if I really should pass up on these Nobles after all...
If you're a "bass head", then the Dulce Bass are for you. I am not a bass head at all. I am more of a treble head if anything, so for me, the X's are more suited to my tastes and even more so, the Katana and Encore.
The fit is a whole different story, but fit and seal issues would need to be solved no matter which IEM you buy. Some may fit better than others, but finding the right tips is most of the battle, I think.
I can't tell you whether you should join the drop or not, but I would be completely thrilled if these X's were my first IEM. What a great way to start. Also, when more people get them and hear how good they are, you probably won't have any trouble selling them if you decide they're not for you.
Are you saying that someone who has never heard a Shure IEM is not credible enough to express an impression of a Noble IEM? OK, that's fine. In that case I am not credible to you at all. Please ignore me. Thanks, -Darin
"But hey, I have never heard of the Noble X's, but the Shure SE215 is cheaper and better, I'm Shure of it."
How credible can you be if you have never heard the Noble X's? So no one is credible unless they have heard every IEM. OK got it.
I think we can agree on one thing: We should ignore each other.
In headphone terms, maybe if the Savanna or N4 is more like a Stax or HD800 sound, then the X's are more like an Audeze LCD sound. (Not exactly, but you get the idea.)
I have found that the placement of the tips can also change the sound signature. Since I also prefer a brighter sound, if I push the tips so that they are as far down on the IEM as possible, that makes the X's a little brighter. Whereas I try to do the opposite on the brighter IEM's like the Encore or Sage. So you can "tune" the IEM to some extent just with tip rolling and tip placement.
But if you like a sound signature that is bright, then the Noble X's are not bright and sparkly. I like bright too. That's why I have Stax 009's, Katanas, AKG K1000, etc. But for a lot of poorly recorded music, those bright cans can get fatiguing. I think the Noble X's are designed so that everything sounds good and smooth, but isn't bright.
