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.

Just in case you are new, there is a feature on Massdrop that allows you to join the drop only if the lowest price is reached. The link is just below the 'Purchase' button on every active drop.
If you are comparing prices elsewhere and only the lowest price on MD makes sense for you, use the commit feature instead of joining the drop at a higher price than you like. Generally you'd be able to get the item sooner than MD would deliver it if you purchase elsewhere, even when ordering after the end of a drop, so there's really no harm in using the commit option for something you were planning to buy anyway and are willing to wait a bit for a possible discount on.
In other words, always compare only the lowest price on massdrop when shopping around.
It's a very nice DAC, looks great and the sound is phenomenal for the price. It's almost fully metal, and quite heavy for its size. I tried an SMSL Sanskrit Pro DAC before, and the TEAC sounds so much better than that.
