I don't like the straight/stiff adapters because they stick out of the device a lot more than a regular plug and seem prone to damaging your equipment if someone yanks on the cord ... so I made my own pigtails with 6" of cable, and they work great. I now have at least 2 each of XLRF/XLRM to TRSF/TRSM, for any situation I walk into. I am no longer concerned about TRS outs
The Radial USB Pro is my go-to 2 channel Output box. The attenuator is kind of a bummer, but they are my go-to interface when video people want to interface with my audio gear. They have all the features you want in a 2 channel playback box with none of the extras you'll never use, are reliable as heck (driverless!), and I have never had one fail on a few dozen rigs, each carrying 2 USB Pro's over several hundred performances combined. You pay a modest premium for its stupid ruggedness and solid reliability.
At a lower budget, if you are looking for output only:

I have one of these and it's awesome. It "just works" plugging into any computer. The only problem is that it says Peavey on it.
