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...

As far as hype train goes, well... I have tried products I don't like, and thus I don't really feel like spending the time to write up a detailed review of them, but they still show up sometimes sprinkled into other reviews as examples of what NOT to do. But when a product is worthy of the hype, and will only be available to those that know quickly, well, I wanted to inform people about these PC37X as soon as possible. Reviewing is partially objective and partially subjective, while I tried to describe the sound character and other aspects of the headset to give people an idea of what the headset is, I also wanted to give it my recommendation. Of course the reader should make up their own mind, and personal taste will be the final preference and should dictate the final decision, but don't say I didn't tell ya we have a hit on the way!
Lastly, besides the fact that it says Limited Edition on the box and is part of the full title of the headphone, I do believe it still fits the definition of being LE because of the reasons mentioned at the end of the review (First release, Massdrop special event and custom colorway/included cable choice, limited quantity, special price that makes it VERY strong against headphones priced close to it).
