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...

I have the 1MORE Quad on order.
Even though my pair of HEM8 did have an issue where one of the BA on the right side blew out after 4 months of usage, Optoma USA did replace them without any issues once I gave them the serial number and recipt of purchase from Massdrop. It took about a month to receive the replacement, but they were great in replacing the faulty IEM.
If I were to rank the top 5 of what I own, it would be:
1. HEM8 2. Noble X 3. Westone 4R 4. UE 900S 5. Kinera H3
I listen mainly to hard rock/heavy metal on an iPod or a smartphone with a DAC chipset built-in, and I tend not to listen to lossless music (which is why I didn't splurge for the Noble K10 because I figured to be able to take advantage of all the drivers, would need to convert all my music to lossless as the IEMs are only as good as the source of the music and the device driving it).
