Bi-amping question - XLR out split


I am currently bi-amping my Legacy Focus speakers and am liking the sound so far.  But I am looking at getting a new preamp so I can use XLR connections from preamp to my two amps, both have XLR ins (please let’s not get into the XLR vs RCA benefit rabbit hole). My question is related to purchasing a new preamp with one XLR out pair or two XLR out pairs.  If I buy a preamp with one XLR out pair and then get an XLR Y cable to send to my two amps, will this lead to any degradation of the sound?  vs just having a preamp with two XLR out pairs (assuming same signal in both XLR out pairs) ?

Thanks - Kevin

The Rogue Audio RP-7 (and RP-9, I believe) has dual XLR outputs, and I am using the second set for my dual subwoofers with cables about 12' and 22' long.THe addition of the subs made a huge difference in my system.
