I have a gaming headset Natec Genesis HX66 and I have some problems with the microphone. It makes very weird noises but when i move the wire it works again. Any solutions? Its maybe the wire?
 
Solution
Sounds like it. Likely the wire, the jack it plugs into, or a Mute switch if it has it. Fiddle with them all to narrow it down for sure. The wires are difficult to repair, but I have found sometimes that by pinning down the exact location of the fault, that you can sometimes loop or bend it at the perfect spot and tape it to stay that way, and maybe get more life out of it.
