Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?

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 MX3 has a more powerful headphone AMP 257mW @32ohms vs 52mW @ 32ohms, but you stated this dosen't really matter to you.
One other consideration that may or may not matter to you is the AD18 has BT w/ AptX while the MX3 BT does not.
I can't speak to the DAC or audio performance as I've only used the AD18 (but might get a MX3 to compare).
