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.

Oh, this one has a plastic platter. The job of the platter is to have enough mass to smooth out any vibrations or variances in speed. A decent turntable will have a platter made of aluminum, a big chunk of MDF or acrylic, or something else that's heavy and solid. A turntable with a plastic platter is a toy.
Massdrop does have some fine turntables available from time to time, but this one is isn't. The frequency response of the speakers are 80 Hz and up, so they're pretty horrible as well. They barely cover the male vocal range, let alone bass guitars and that sweet 808 bass.
EDIT: Further evidence to avoid this drop: This turntable is on the /r/vinyl "List of Turntables to Avoid" wiki page, over on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/vinyl/comments/5bh435/list_of_turntables_to_avoid_and_the_reasons_why/
