Sennheiser PC37X randomly goes bad after disconnecting the cable ?

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.

This is my first DAC/Amp. I've been skeptical of the value of them, but this was inexpensive enough to risk trying. I love it.

I hadn't realized how much I missed a physical knob. :-) Five stars unless it starts displaying the premature death others have reported.
