Are there any filters which have two (or more) phone sockets, with or
without an ADSL socket?

Not filters per se, as far as I'm aware. But you can plug a socket doubler
into the phone socket of a microfilter if you don't mind it looking a
Christmas tree!

A neater way might be to fit a filtered faceplate to your master socket -
and then run some proper extension sockets from the connections on the back.
These extensions will automatically be filtered without requiring any
plug-in filters.

Looks like you need a combination of filtered and double sockets.
As recently mentioned from Maplin:

AA4CA, a filtered slave socket / ADSL outlet combination. Use 16mm
pattress box BTW.

FT47B, a double slave phone socket (no filtering).

They should allow you a bit more flexibility in wiring your setup.
eg run some / all of your phone lines from the filtered phone outlet on
the AA4CA and also avoid running the ADSL separately from the master
socket if the filter faceplate route is not appealing to you.

I've just put in the filtered slave unit and it seems good. Certainly a
reasonable number (8) of inductive bits inside. Did not change my line
stats noticeably, but then I'm not in a typical user location.
