I am doing the same thing and this was a big headache, but I got it figured out without using BC or a sorting machine. Use two filters and a regulator next to a chest ( small wooden will work fine ). Place six cables in one filter and one cable in the other filter. Place SEVEN cables each in the left and right inventories of the regulator. This will make the regulator give a restone signal when the chest has at least seven cables in it. Place redstone wire from the side of the regulator to each filter and they will draw the correct number of cables from the chest at the same time. After that happens the redstone signal will turn off and the chest will be allowed to fill again. Make sure the regulator has its output side facing the chest and there is no need to connect a tube to it. Works like a charm. Hope this helps.
