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'm very interested! If I can't find a pair of these soon, I'm just going with the Nuforce HEM 2 😎👍🎧
I feel like I got a solid deal though! Now I just need to order the Westone MMCX cable without the inline mic and I'll be all set! I'm hoping that these are the last IEM's I need to buy for AWHILE, since now I have the Nuforce EDC and Primo 8 IEM's, as well as my old school, rock solid Monster iSport Victory earbuds. Next up for me are the Massdrop x Sennheiser HD 6xx headphones and then my IEM/Headphone collection will be completed for many years to come hopefully 😉
BTW, has anyone used this Westone MMCX cable before? And specifically with the Primo 8's? I realize that there are cheaper options available, but I don't want to buy something cheaper, just to return it and buy the Westone's MMCX cable anyway!

Thanks in advance, Bean
I don't remember seeing all of their MMCX cables though so I'll have to take another look right now! Thanks again for the info, it's MUCH appreciated!
For $50 though, the Westone MMCX cable does look really nice and compact and tangle free just like my Nuforce EDC IEM's mic-less cable! Westone also sells a Bluetooth cable for MMCX connector's too, but for $100, that seems a little bit high to me?!
