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...

Buggles: I Am A Camera. Good proof for an early digital recording (short on bass). Tchaikovsky; Nutcracker Suite: Arabian Dance, and March (Neville Marriner, Academy of St Martin In The Fields). This DDD classical recording has so much dynamic range it will challenge just about any rig - and the early-digital-recording artifacts (music sheets rustling, chairs creaking etc) are excellent proofs for sensitivity Everything But The Girl: Talk To Me Like The Sea. Excellent for soundstage/separation testing. Everything But The Girl: Lullaby of Clubland: for mid and bass tests; this track is everything I Am A Camera isn't. Chris Botti: Indian Summer: good for mids and highs testing. Liane Foly: Les Parfums d'Autrefois. Great vocal from an amazing singer. Julia Fordham: Where Does The Time Go? Ditto. Clannad: Coinleach Ghlas An Fhomhair: excellent acoustic recording, with significant dynamic subtlety. Howard Jones: New Song. Jones' hard-edged synths should sparkle with the right set of cans. Ultravox: All Stood Still. Good for all-around wall-of-sound performance checks.
There's more of course but this would be a good place to start.
