Currently on the wait list for the FM3 and I am wondering whats the best way to connect IEM and FRFR speakers at the same time, both have XLR inputs. I am a bedroom only player and most of the times I want to play at room volume. Sometimes I need to play completely quiet though.
So I want to have the IEM system (XLR, Stereo) connected at all time and also the FRFR speaker(s) connected at all time. I just want to power on the output that I want to use.
I came up with these ways:

I came up with these ways:
- Use OUT 1 (XLR) from FM3 to one device and OUT 2 (1/4") with an adapter to the other. So OUT 2 gotta be converted from unbalanced to balanced
- Use a XLR Splitter (like IMG Stageline LSP-102) to use OUT 1 into the splitter and then connect IEM and FRFR speakers from the splitter outputs
- Some FRFR cabs have XLR output (normally for connecting another speaker). The manual of such devices don't say if the output is always on (passive) or only active, when I power on the speaker (active).
