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...

Who does the manufacturing? Is this made in USA, China, or Singapore? Since Razer owns the THX brand, how did that show up here? Is this a product designed by razer or the guys at THX? So who supports this product?
I have absolutely ZERO respect for razer (for gamers, by gamers) when it comes to technical support and corporate integrity. From their thermal issues, to their power issues, to their straight up lies (in the name of marketing)......
Focal has their top-of-the-line drivers handmade by disabled people for crying out loud... just because Massdrop isn't Apple, doesn't mean that they can't deliver an excellent product.
I'm way more concerned by pseudo-scientific babble claiming to be "audiophile" grade. A large chunck of the THX web pages talking about the THX AAA topology is just wrong. Not even debatable stuff. Just flat wrong. I'm chalking it up to an inexperienced web dev.
If the website is accurate, this amp will sound harsher than a saturated Class-D amp. I personally doubt that THX just re-purposed a 1980's subwoofer amp topology and added extra rails for the transient peaks in the high-frequency range.
And following up, THX Ltd is owned by Razer. I don't know that this is definitely an issue, but time will tell what happens.
Min-Ling Tan sucks according to almost everyone... whether he can tank THX by forcing engineering to compromise integrity remains yet to be seen.
