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.

So I've got oodles of iem's and headphones, mostly less than 200$. I stepped up a notch with some Hi-FiMan 400i Planars and Senn HD-600's. I guess my nicest iem's are the recent NuForce seconds drop here, whatever the model # was.
My best gear, to me sounds absolutely stunning. I don't claim to be an audiophile with calibrated hearing or anything. So my question is, should I just be happy and done or will I be noticeably impressed going up another notch or 2 in headphones? I've been eyeing Noble Audio Sage and NightHawk Carbons in particular. Barring some luck in a Lotto I don't see myself ever being able to justify truly high end gear but should I bump it up some from where I'm at? Thanks in advance.
