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...

Here's the way I look at it: 1. Everything in the drop is a good product (unlike, say, the entry Mee bluebox with the terrible Crystals mixed in with decent options) 2. The base option is at a meaningful discount (A 20% discount from the Amazon price at the time I'm writing this) 3. Everything meets the same general use case (unlike, say, the concurrent Spyderco Dragonfly knife blue box, which has EDC knives mixed with a 1/3 chance of getting a specialty saltwater use knife)
And if you look at the expected value math: .75 x $99.99 = 74.99 .20 x $113.99 = 22.80 .05 x 199.99 = 10 Overall EV = $107.79
On top of that, every one of the bonus gifts is a legit prize. (not a spyderco case to be seen :))
I own the PX, and am very happy with it. It's kind of my IEM counterpart to my Beyer DT880, and I think it was a great deal at the $113 price. While this one doesn't make sense for me personally, If you're looking for IEMs under $100, this is one to consider.
I wish every Blue Box was structured like this one - I've been a little "meh" with MD lately, but hard to complain here. I hope it goes well so they have more like it.
There will certainly be more Blue Boxes on the way :).
