This isn't just an exercise in soldering some spare 24AWG hobby wire 3#-) I've had the liberty of splicing 100pair Belden shielded cables at the Olympics in Athens and it was not fun, but not impossible either and the audio carried on it was still good for all audio. You won't need to worry about any balancing transformers for the task either. That's more to do with matching up mismatched impedances between the equipment at both ends than the actual cable, at least over a short run like that anyway. In this case, bot h the DSP and the head unit are designed with the same impedances anyway so there's no problem.
