String Together MIT XLRs?


Hello!

I'm in a new home and setup and thinking to move my rack into a nearby closet.  I currently have MIT MI330 XLRs from my pre to my amplifier.  I've been searching for nearly a year now for some longer cables (I need 7 or so meters to make this run the way I'd like it) and not finding anything.  There is a 17 meter set here that is well beyond my price point, and there are a couple of pairs of longer XLRs available on the used market in Europe right now that are close (5 & 6 meters) but not exactly right.  I think the new stuff is stupid expensive and not gonna drop $10k on a comparable set of cables when that is close to what I paid for my Scala Utopias.

My question is, can I string two cables together?  Anyone do this with MIT XLRs?  Pros, cons?  One set currently available is a MI330 so likely the same performance...thoughts?

Thanks @erik_squires!  I've got a 3 meter set of older Mogamis that I'm gonna put on my MI330s to give it a shot and see if I like the configuration.  I've also got a question into MIT about what effect they believe stringing cables together might have (say if the second cable has higher number of poles).  It sure would be easier to spend a few $$$ bucks on a Mogami cable!
