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. The replacement came, and the issue is still persistant, so I am not sure what the issue is I've tried multiple different headsets and the issue is not with the port, and I also tried it with my windows laptop and...

I'll also note that the Joutenhiem was a poor match with the TH-900. The Deckard (which is basically a tweaked Matrix B-Stage) was significantly better than both the Joutenhiem AND the Ragnarok with the TH-900, which is why I ended up selling the Ragnarok and returning the Joutenhiem. Using the HE-6, the Joutenhiem was obviously not amp enough -- it didn't collapse like the Deckard did, but it was clearly insufficient to get the best of the HE-6.
Now, I'm running a pair of Utopias (with an eBay balanced cable set) off the Mjolnir 2 with Reflektor 1975 Silver Shields ($100 a tube) and I'm fully satisfied. I'll be selling my HE-6 and TH-900.
