I just point out that a number of audiophiles do NOT like splitters and some also try to minimize the number of connections.
I have one input per amp and a jumper from the same cable. = 3 connections with others internal to the amp.
splitter with 1 in and 2 out potentially has the same number (3) while any additional cable adds junctions. The splitter, also, unless $$$ is made from some cable over which you have no control.
DIY is a viable option, in that case, too. That may be the best of all worlds. You can get some very premium cable and use good connectors.
Again, the Parasound 'solution' (not really a problem?) is very easy. And requires nothing not already in most persons parts box.

Follow Ups:
Well actually you started out slamming options other than your setup, but now we're finally on the same page, just more than one way to skin a cat. With the Y splitter internal from the manufacturer with the wire of their choice or external with the wire the customers choice, both with the pros and cons this brings.
Glad we could agree on this and hopefully the OP gleaned some insight.

I love simple.
Complexity always has problems. 4-way speakers almost always have problems to my ears while it would seem to be easier to get a 2-way right.
And No, i don't think I was 'slamming' Y connector system. Others MIGHT, however, based on what I read about cable / connector preferences.
The real fringe might balk at a 10$ Y while giving the nod to some DIY / Cardas type running 100$+ per side.
I merely like and appreciate the forward thinking of Parasound. When I bought the amps, I had NO idea I'd be heading the direction I am or that I would find the additional connection useful.
