Thoughts on interconnect vs. speaker cable length.

I wish to plae my amp closer to the speakers and away from the front end rack.

My system consists of Esoteric MG10s, Bel 1001MKV, Audible Illusions 3a, PS DLIII DAC, M2Tech USB/SPdif. Mac Mini, Arcam DV137, Sonograph Turntable.

In 40 yrs of playing with this very thing,I've concluded optimum is no m0re that 2m IC and no less that 2m SC, with
best at 1.5 m and 7 feet.YMMV

Tpreaves, To help you understand.....
The OP is considering a shorter SC run and a longer IC run from Pre to Amps.
General experiences suggest that shorter ICs and longer SCs are the better sonically with all else being equal. Others more knowledgeable will chime in.
