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...

Just finally upgraded my Bravo's tube, too -- from the stock EH6922 to a Genalex Gold Lion -- after enjoying it for nearly 5 years...
Very, very strange timing, though: immediately after placing my order for the new tube, I noticed a "pulsing" sort of interference-type sound in the right channel. If I move my hand around the amp/tube, it goes in & out... And I've heard it do this before, but then it went away. I have no idea what this is or why it suddenly started happening, but sadly the problem did not go away after installing the new tube.
Music still sounds fine, except during quieter parts when I can still hear the pulsing... Any ideas, folks?!
EDIT: And I've determined that it's definitely the amp. No issues when I plug into the pass-thru channel.
EDIT 2: AAAAAAND I just flipped on the amp and plugged in my headphones... AND THE PULSING SOUND IS GONE AGAIN... WTF IS HAPPENING TO MY LITTLE BRAVO?! (Sorry for shouting...)
