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...

Anyone know of a decent sounding IEM that offers a useful NRR for shooting skeet and trap or an audio enabled ear-pro that doesn't sound like crap. Full size earmuffs are not an option for my style of shooting.
Question for more experienced users: I'm looking for mobile setup to give ear protection with decent audio. I shoot skeet and have just started playing music while I shoot skeet as a mental crutch (let's be honest). Right now I'm using Walker's Razor XV Bluetooth headset paired to my phone, but I would like something more reliable. But it seems like the whole concept of quality audio with good NRR is too much of a niche.
As for the XV: its the first thing of its kind Walker has made, so doesn't sound great, has iffy build quality, poor BT range, and buttons in all the wrong places. A photo of my three month old set is below.
I'd like something with fewer compromises, and am going to be testing out Plugfones Ranger plugged into a SoundBlaster E5 paired to my S7 playing/streaming Tidal. Obviously Plugfones are going to be the weak link. Anyone know of a good IEM that will save my hearing or ear-pro that wont drive me crazy?
Thanks All.
