I was wondering if there is an accessory for the 360 that allows me to extend the wireless range of the controllers.  I'm wanting to put my 360 in an A/V rack that is further away from my playing field than the alotted 30 ft.  Is it bluetooth communication and if so would a bluetooth repeater work?  Any help would be appreciated.

I have heard of nothing like that. All I know is that the wirless tech that is used in the 360 is a MS property that no one else can use. In other words it is not bluetooth or anything else that you could by a universal extender for. Putting it in a rack would be a great way to get rid of the fan noise but at the same time changing disks would kinda be a pain right?

Thanks for the info...I've been looking everywhere so I was afraid I would need to keep it close.  No big deal.

It isn't bluetooth.  MS uses a wifi signal and the ps3 is the one that uses bluetooth.  If the 360 is in the room you're in i doubt you will have any trouble (unless your in some insanely large area.
