IR repeater?

I think this is what I need. Anyway, I just had to do some rearranging to accomodate my new projector, and I had to move my AV rack basically directly behind my couch, which makes my remotes a little useless. Is there some kind of repeater I can buy that will send the signal back to the dvd player and receiver so that I dont have to point the remote sideways and backwards?

Maybe a mirror would do the trick just as well?

You may be right about the mirror. Otherwise you get into RF repeaters such as this:

Dont buy that crappy X10 one if you get one. I had one and it didnt work very well. Replaced it with this one and it is AWESOME seems to pick up better than the original equipment IR ports I did.
