For what it's worth, I use a Radial Tonebone ABY box that cost me about $85, as I recall.  It's a little pricier than some of the competition (you can get an ABY from Morley for about $50, I think), but it does a better job than anything else I've tried of pushing the same signal that it sees at the input to either or both outputs, without degradation.  It's also compact, built like a tank, and needs no power source.
