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'm looking to spend under $350 AUD on a tube headphone amplifier, which comes out to around $250-300 USD, and am looking for some suggestions.
I'm struggling to track down a Little Dot MK III which would have been my first thought, but can get a Maverick Audio TubeMagic A1 w/ Raytheon 6AK5 tubes for under $250 USD including postage which is a pretty tempting proposal.
From the wise users of Massdrop I was looking for some other suggestions that I may not know about.
For reference, I'm only interested in the Headphone amp aspect, not bothered by DAC or Stereo Amplification as I have an SMSL M8A and I'm not planning on driving speakers.
I currently use HiFiMAN HE4XX's and Oppo PM-3's and will be looking at getting some Monolith M1060's in the future.
Thanks in advance for your Suggestions everyone!
Cheers
