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...

Anyone know a good divorce attorney? I'm sure after these drops and my DT990 Pro purchase last week, I'll need one. Looks like some new cans are getting cut loose.

Since the 6xx's arrived today, I'm hesitant on using them at all until I have enough power to supply. Is there a recommended minimum to drive them? Would I get away with an E10k/Fulla 2 or am I doing a disservice?
I intend on using the 6xx's at home, at my desk enjoying as high quality as I can get, streamed music (Tidal, Spotify). I'm not chasing a sound, rather want to enjoy it a bit more compared to previous closed cans (M50x, DT770). Since I've experienced open with the 990's, I'm hooked.
So back to the original question hidden above, can I get away with a $100 combo to drive the 6xx's? Otherwise, they may need to go. (edit: I won't necessarily sell them, I'll just need to bench them until I can budget a bit more to venture into the $250-350 range - Jotunheim)
I'd say, save for Jotunheim - only if you're wanting to try balanced down the track. Magni 3 could just about be your second to last amp you'll want to purchase? Single-ended power with fairly decent THD. Only 100 bucks and you can easily sell it off later, if you wish.
I have a few dac's & amp's, and I can safely say, I'd give them all up for my Jot and Darkvoice. Both amps can make the 6xx's make music GO.
If you're in the US, then perhaps check out JDS labs also, as they have some killer stuff going on over there too!
Good luck traveler!
