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...

half the reviews on this site are "omg it sounds amazing". It doesn't sound "amazing". It doesn't sound "great". Its VERY clampy (I actually like that), its clearly made from very cheap materials, and sound wise, any generic 30$ monitor from walmart or best buy is going to compete with this. Sorry you cant see this.
is actually how I would describe the sound. They do not sound great, but adequate for my application, which is DJIng and monitoring. For these applications I am looking at certain frequecies in particular the mids and bass and then the isolation.
Materialwise, I think that they are surprisingly good. To be honest the HD25 feels cheap, maybe not as cheap as the HD562 and the HD25 is overpriced at the US price of $249. Ridiculous. It is not even hi end like my HD800s. The HD25 sounds good, but it is still congested too.
You are mistaken in your flawed onions. We all need these things for different reasons. Just because it did not fit what you were looking for does not make them trash or bad. or cheapo headphones. The HD562 is in fact a great headphone IMHO.
Pair that with the cheap plastic material and they feel cheap. They are under 40 dollars, I'd call that cheap.
Are they terrible? No. Could you do better? Probably if you go with IEMs. Honestly they sound about as good as Skullcandy in the same price range, but I find that those Target/Wallmart consumer headphones are more comfortable than these.
I'm glad you like the headphones though and that they fit you well. Unfortunately they aren't for me.
