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.

Here is the summary:
Pros:
- Cheaper than HD 650s but similar quality
- Good amount of sound stage
- better bass than 598s
- Sound great with better dacs/amps
Cons:
- Build quality is not the best
- The velour pads gets messy (but can be cleaned, more details on how to do that in video)
- Need atleast a budget amp
The 6xx at this price is currently the winner for headphones under $200 in terms of sound and overall quality. But thats only if you are in the USA, if you live in Canada, its a different story but is it still worth it? I live in Canada and I talk about my personal thought on this.
Overall I recommended a budget dac/amp to go with the 6xx AND what I personally use. The review of the dacs will come in the near future (videos will be uploaded every week)
