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...

edit: I guess what my overall point is is that if the headphones get loud enough out of your phone, I wouldn't bother with an amp, it's just one more thing you have to carry around.
I'm assuming by magnus 2 you meant magni 2? Is there a reason you are considering the ODAC/Amp when you already have the magni 2? I can't say one is really better than the other.
As far as portable audio goes, I ended up just buying a nice pair of IEMs that I can drive straight out of my phone or laptop and I am perfectly content doing that.
