Y-Connector with XLR ends for Bi-Amping?

I currently use a Y-connector with RCA ends to connect my preamp to my amp (4 channels) to bi-amp my speakers. I am thinking now of bi-amping using XLR interconnects. Is there such a thing as a Y-connector with XLR ends which will meet my needs, and who makes a quality Y-connector with XLR ends if it is available? Thanks much for your help.

I've seen them in music stores: Sam Ash, Guitar Center,etc. maybe some mail order catalogs (Muscian Friend, etc.) the manufacturer Hosa has these models: YXL-119 & YXM-121, don't know about their quality, I'm sure there are others.

Also, try A2Z cables. they have just about everything that could ever be made. they also have a very informative web page.

Note: be a little careful as you get creative with your wires.

I bi-amp from the high end Cd player but then I got real cute with my amp, using balanced inputs for one source and using unblanced for another source. I caused some very expensive problems in my Cd player when something looped back that it could not handle.

Sonoran has some very nice XLR Y-connectors starting at $125 per pair. Check their website for info on all of their high value resonance control cables.
