Dwhitt,

Hey, how's it going? Interested to hear about your new system when you are ready to expound.

Don't worry about a short cord, its not the length that matters, it's the flow! I would go to a reasonable custom cord manufacturer like Signal, Zebra or VH and ask them to make you a cord of whatever length you need. At the reasonable prices they charge, you wont fret too much about having a special purpose cord, and it will make you happy each time you sit down to enjoy your system because you wont see it hanging out from behind your gear.

One caveat - some of the cords listed above can be pretty stiff and may have trouble bending to where they need to go in a half meter length. Better to be sure you get something flexible enough to do what you want it to do.
