I'm normally the only one monitoring my editing, so I just use the third
and fourth outputs on my Delta44, and unplug the 1/2 outputs or kill the
routes to Out1/2 in Ardour.  Pretty easy.

I've also been watching monitors lately, thinking about buying some new
gear when I get some cash.  Most active monitors in that price range
have both XLR and 1/4" inputs, so you're good on that front.

I've read good things about the Yamaha MSP5's.  They're pretty small
(something like 6x11x9 inches) and run $500 a pair on MF.  They're even
supposed to sound decent for the price/size point.
