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...

There are website retailers who put the country of origin on all of their listings. Sierra Trading Post (now part of the TJ Maxx family, unfortunately), or Fat Brain Toys (where you can even select country of origin in your search!) Some people could care less where what they purchase is manufactured. Some of us do care, and prefer to direct our funds to countries with common values. I for one am not willing to pay first world prices for second or third world labor. Would you buy a Rolex watch for $10,000 made in China if Rolex moved their operation there? The wealthy population of China certainly would not. They know better.
In today's world, we cannot reasonably escape purchasing products made in China. After all, I am typing this on an Apple keyboard attached to an iMac. Wouldn't it have been cool had Apple's base of manufacturing been kept here in the USA? Or if not here, then Canada? Ireland? South Africa?
It would do no harm for all websites that sell products to put the country of origin in plain view with the other specifications. The word "imported" is commonly used on many websites and in catalogs. This is a veiled attempt at "made somewhere you're not going to be happy about when it arrives at your house." To the retailers I say, If you are not ashamed of where the products you're selling come from, then show us right up front.
