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.

Since than, there has been more and more DSD capable DAC in the market, many of them even under $150.
The DAC part of HD-DAC1 seems not as good as other newer DACs such as Chord Mojo which I have been using for my speaker setup. Also, as I added the STAX to my headphone collection, a better DAC with balanced out is something I am intrested to try. I am thinking of getting a better desktop DAC.

Some criterias I am looking for:
