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...

Also so these are one of the most comfortable closed back headphones I have ever tried. Those pads are soft and lush. Everytime I touch the pads I look around me to see if anyone noticed the arousal my fingers just received. The pleather is that soft and the memory foam that cushiony.
If if you want closed back headphones, with clear, clean, and precise low end without sacrificing mids or highs, these are the cans.
***Excellent for Metal Heads Like me!*** (Listen to "Lateralus" by Tool, oh those drums!)
The only cans in this price range that give it a run for its place are the M40x's, but only after you replace the pads with HM5's Angled Sheepskin or Pleather. So that's $100+$40, this are $54.99-$60 and need nothing!
Get them, if this deal is not good for you because of shipping, customs, international , etc, just get them from Status Audio. When you sign up at their website they give you a 15% coupon to use. And you get them in a few days.
***Use coupon "BlackFriday" at status audio checkout for a hell of a deal*** (yes still works, I just used it last week)
Also so you can pay with Amazon when you buy from status audio. Comes in handy if you have amazon gift card balance or Amazon store card you want to use.
You are welcome. Enjoy your new favorite closed back cans.
PS: the cable bundle they sell for their HD headphones works with these. Get it for $10. You get two nice flat cables, one of them black with mic+1, the other one is flat and red color. Very nice cable. Work with all my other 3.5mm jack headphones.
One thing I will note. My pair had the female 3.5mm jack where the headphones connect go loose. It would not grip the cable without the lock engaged. Sure, the cables lock, but I like to use custom cables. So, I modded the cup to accept a metal 3.5mm female jack. WAY more durable than the plastic piece of junk that was inside (and believe me, it was JUNK). It was a proper upgrade to these phones.
This is a game changer.
It it makes for a great gift for someone you want to get started in our hobby.
I just bought another set of CB-1's + cables to give my Dad for Father's Day. Can't beat the price.
If you need a better build set of cans, spend a little more and get the ATH-M40X + HM5 PADS. More money, but better built and will stand some abuse.
it seems like BlackFriday code doesn't work at the moment BUT at the time of my transaction "CyberMonday" code still worked!
I am sure someone at Massdrop called them "hey that black Friday code is killing us on this drop" haha.
Glad at least some of you got to take advantage.
Listening to mine right now (Meshuggah rocks!)
