Hello, late to this thread, but I have the same challenge as
piperpilot12w - use my Transporter's one pair of XLR output to feed (1)
one pair of Focal active desktop monitors, and (2) an active Focal sub
(which accepts one pair of XLR inputs).  

I was told by some that I could use a XLR Y-splitter cable (or adapter)
to send one pair of XLRs to the monitors and another pair to the sub,
but others say that such a split would degrade the original signal.  To
maintain the perfect signal, some suggest to use an active XLR splitter
of some kind, or use a crossover device to separate the XLR feeds to
the monitors and the sub.  But I hate to introduce any active
components in the path. 

To use the Transporter XLRs for the monitors and the RCAs for the sub
won't work for me because the volume is controlled by a single passive
attenuator device between the Transporter and the speakers.

Will a high quality XLR splitter cable or adapter really degrade the
original signal?  Other suggestions how to best take one XLR output and
faithfully send it to two destinations?  Thanks.
