Plug the USB connector into another available USB port. • Check your computer's volume level. • Check if your computer's volume is muted. • Check your operating system's audio input and output settings. • Check the headset's volume and mute settings. • Restart computer.
If these don't resolve your issue, I would recommend pursuing replacement options.

Otherwise, I would recommend pursuing replacement options
try uninstalling and then re-installing the headset. Afterwards, if you are having audio problems, try the following:
• Plug the USB connector into an available USB port. • Check your computer's volume level. • Check if your computer's volume is muted. • Check your operating system's audio input and output settings. • Check the headset's volume and mute settings. • Restart computer.
If you still experience issues, then I would recommend pursuing replacement options.
i have cyber acoustics headset and i cant hear anything but my Mic works, my sound is all fine, when i plug my headset out i can hear but when its plugged in, i cant hear anything.
Most likely, it isn't the wired headset that is the problem. It may be the controller. If you haven't already, try testing the headset with another controller. Since hearing and voice are two separate functions, it may be that the controller is only able to send out sound, but not able to pick it up. Test it out with another controller, and hopefully it will work. But may I suggest a common issue that is overlooked: Double check the microphone is not muted. (both in the settings of your Xbox 360 AND the mute option found on the wired headset. It's by the volume.) To check this on your Xbox 360 click on the "home" button (top middle part of the controller with the Xbox logo) go to settings ---> preferences. There you will see the option to mute the microphone. I sincerely hope Microsoft already suggested all of these things though. Also, better double check that the Microphone isn't muted in Preferences BEFORE trying another controller because if it is muted in Preferences, (which can only be done when signed into a profile) whichever controller he uses, it will be muted to do preferences being set to any controller/headset used. So please double check that it's not the microphone that is muted to start, and then double check the headset isn't muted (on the actual headset) followed by changing controller if it still isn't working. Hope this was of some help.
Sound and Recording jacks stop working on the DV6000 series due to the ribbon cable running under the power button. when the power button is pushed it bends the flex cable and over time it breaks the connection rendering the front jacks useless you can buy a new upper button panel for about 20 dollars on ebay
I found this on the Turtle Beach website:

Let's make absolutely sure that the microphone in your headset is
working correctly. If the mic is working, a replacement talkback
cable should fix it. If not, then please send in your name, shipping
address, the name of the store where you purchased your X1 and the
date (month/day/year) of purchase.
OK, here's how to test the X1 using the Microphone input on your PC:
1) Take the pink plug from the X1 and plug it into the pink jack
(Microphone input) on your PC's soundcard.
2) Take the green plug from the X1 and plug it into the green jack
(Front L/R Out or Line Out) on your PC's soundcard.
3) Take the USB plug from the X1 and insert it into a USB port on
the PC (not a USB hub, please).
4) In the soundcard's control software, enable the Microphone
for playback. In the Microphone > Advanced settings, enable
the Microphone Boost. Make sure the Microphone is not muted
(Mute switch is not enabled).
5) Adjust the volume for the Microphone to about half-way up.
6) Adjust the overall playback volume to about half-way up.
7) Put on the headset. Make sure the Mute switch on the X1 amp
box is not set to Mute (the LED should be green).
Now speak into the microphone. Do you hear your voice in the
headphones? If so, the mic works and your X1 headphones should
be OK. If you still cannot get the X1 mic to work over Xbox Live,
then you need to take a closer look at Dashboard settings and
other connections, or check the integrity of your X1-Xbox
Controller Cable.

If you're having trouble adjusting the Mic in Windows:
WINDOWS XP:
For Windows XP, there's a nice video on YouTube that takes you through all the steps of setting up your microphone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vissxo8furo
WINDOWS VISTA:
Please follow these instructions to configure your microphone within Windows Vista:
1. Left-click on the Start button. The Start Menu will appear.
2. Left-click on Control Panel. The Control Panel will open.
3. Left-click on the Hardware and Sound option. The Hardware and Sound window will open.
4. Left-click on the Sound option. The Sound window will open.
5. Left-click on Recording from the three tabs at the top of the Sound window. While in the Recording tab of the Sound window, you will see all options available for recording - Microphone should be one of them. (If you don’t see an option for Microphone, ensure your microphone is plugged into your computer using the jacks commonly located on either the front or back of the machine.)
6. Left-click on the Microphone option to highlight it. This will enable the Properties button toward the bottom-right of the window. Left-click on the Properties button.
7. You should see the Properties for your recording (input) devices. One of these should be Microphone.
8. Left-click on the Levels tab (or similar). Adjust the Level (Volume) and Mic Boost controls to at least half-way up. If your Mic Boost control is a simple check box, please make sure it is checked (Enabled). You should hear your microphone in your headset or speakers.
Once the levels are adjusted to your satisfaction, left-click OK and OK to save your settings. You can then close the Control Panel.
Your microphone should now be ready!
