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...

The only minor criticism is that with my ears the tips do not fit perfectly and as a result the level of bass drastically depends on the tiniest changes in their position. I guess all universal fit IEMs are like this to some extent. Also, the lowest sub-bass simply isn't there. But to me that's a minor thing for the type of use.
I work in an open office and the EDC is now my go-to pair either when the office gets noisy, or simply when wearing large full-size planars gets a bit tiresome. Yes, Hifimans + tube amp gets the sweetest sound and big warm-yet-solid bass, but it's nice to get those large over-ear cans off once in a while, espeically since I'm wearing glasses. And working with active noise cancelling Boses for hours gives me this odd sense of pressure or disconnection, which I don't get with IEMs.
Amazing bang for $, or in my case bang for €.
