PS3 controller

I know it sounds weird, but completely fine just with the controller, but as soon as I turn on the PS 7.1 surround sound headseat, my controller goes to ****.  Well, I bought a 32" TV that sits in my 'hallway' before going down the steps to the living room.  My Girlfriend works 1st shift and I work 3rd, so 'bout the time I get to start playing some games, shes going to sleep.  However I realized I have about 30 ft of ethernet cable, so I just run it out of my room, and it's game time...and screaming time over the mic.

Those were my thoughts as well :P

Ah ha. When I run my PS Head/phone/set in conjunction with my DualShock 3 in a different room, I get latency. Not sure why since one uses Bluetooth and the other does not. Thanks though.

lol the class mates said its not input lag, its called latency lmao

Thanks for the replies.  Im setting in a different room.  When i have the controller in my lap, it has about 1 1/2 second delay (which is bad for Battlefield 3) but when I put the controller above my head (in clearer line of sight of the ps3) I have no input lag.  Guess I'm going to go get a 25ft USB cable and see.  

I found some info right here. Perhaps it helps:

Here we go. I have a PS3 in my bedroom, and a TV in another room. Needless to say, I have controller input lag. Would getting a long usb cable make the controller run as a wired function or would it still run bluetooth? Thanks in advance.
