17 feet IC to long with Coincident pre and Franks?

I own the Coincident Statment Line Stage which I use in balanced mode. My gear is located at the side wall and I want to keep it that way. I use and need 17 feet IC.

I´m thinking about the Frankenstein monoblocks, which I understand only have RCA inputs .What about 17 feet RCA
IC for this combo? Will the sound degrade because of the long IC?

Or you can stick with balanced Interconnect cables and use the Jenson Transformers. They have one that goes from Balanced to RCA. So you can run your balanced cables all the way to where your amps are, then plug them into the Jenso Transformer, and go RCA out to the Amps very short distance. I have two if you are interested. I did this until I finally purchaced a fully balanced electronic crossover for my speakers. So, I'm balanced all the way to the amps. Jenson makes great high quality transformer setups. Get on their website and check it out. I used the DM2-2RX which according to Jenson (true) can be run both ways. RCA-XLR and XLR-RCA depending on the switch configuration. check it out.
