While you're at it, consider having them make extention cables out of the remaining section of cable. I had my Schoeps KC5 cables cut about in half. With the 7.5' cable I can stealth more easily (with some slack) or still run them on a short stand at club shows, most seated venues, or clamping to a rail. It's a really useful length I think. And when I need the extra length, I've got the extentions on hand.
