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.

DAC's: Audioquest Dragonfly Black, Schiit Modi, Topping D30
Amps: Massdrop O2, Schiit Magni 3
Any combo of the above would get you in the $200ish range. You could also snag a dragonfly red but that would eat up your entire budget. If you will be moving the amp/dac around it is certainly the most compact option. I use an Audioquest Dragonfly 1.2 and an O2 at the office. Will run everything but my most hard to drive cans. No hiss or noise with sensitive IEM's.
