I will order the boxes (I think 6 lines worth will cover anything possible

we use it right now or not) but could aslo put in optic line(s). Are they
subject to degradation with time if not in use? It is not a long run at
less than 100ft (this includes running it up above the ceiling and dodging
open rooms etc. The dx from stage to mix is less than 50ft.)

It will probably work, but one designed for lower impedance
(and higher levels) would be better.
Right, I found one. It also has three styles of connector (XLR/TRS/RCA) so
cabling will be easier. They are available from a local store too which is
another plus.
Having
"solved" my problem with a single power source, would it
still be worth while isolating all stage amps from the mixer?
That isolation is worth having, always. In modern PA systems
it's done by using optical fibre snakes. If ever you consider
replacing your current gear that would be a good option.
