It’s not only an issue of durability, it’s also an issue of access. I can buy the adapter tomorrow, but I’d have to order the cables and potentially wait up to 2 weeks. Which means I’ll be hosting two events without a mic in the meantime. I do intend to eventually buy a wireless microphone, so saving money now would also be towards that purchase.
So basically, for now, I still want to know if this particular setup will work or not. Would the mic be able to draw power from the amplifier and be amplified with the double adapter and 1/8″ cable setup?

Ah, I see what caused the confusion. By receiver, I meant the receiver/amplifier connected to the speakers, not a wireless receiver/transmitter!

Sorry for the confusion. There is no transmitter. It is a 35 ft 1/8″ male to female cable.
I have this microphone: https://www.amazon.ca/Pyle-Pro-PDMIK1-Professional-Handheld-Microphone/dp/B003GEKXZY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1345009820&sr=8-1
The location I want to use the mic at has a receiver with a 1/4″ input. The problem is that the mic needs to be used about 15 metres away from the receiver, so I require an extension cable. However, the only extension cable I have is the 1/8″ cable.
Basically, I’m trying to save money. If I can simply buy a 1/4″ to 1/8″ adapter and a 1/8″ to 1/4″ adapter to connect the mic to the receiver using the 1/8″ extension cable, that would be the cheapest option (about $6). However, if that does not work, I’d have to buy a 1/4″ 35 ft cable, which would cost about $25.
I hope that clarifies the points of confusion!
