Hi All

So i have been thinking about the multi sub setup for quite some time after having tasted the 2 sub setup(Massive improvement).
I have decided to procure 4 identical subwoofers and was initially going to hook them up too a 2x4 mindsp.

Unfortunately another brainwave hit me when i realised that i could technically run a 6 subwoofer setup.
And this is where i need some guidance from our BASS heads on the forums.

How would you DSP manage 6 subs ?
So i was thinking i would stack 2 SVS subs each in the Front left and front right and move the MA subs to the back Left and rights as they are more powerful than the SVS and should be able to function as single units ?
Would i be able to use a MINIDSP 2x4 with Y splitters for the sub output and connect the 2 x front left subs to one output an use another Y splitter to connect the 2 Front right subs  and single connection each for the MA back subs? Would something like that work ?
Or do i need to look at something like the miniDSP 4x10 HD or can i do it with 2 x minidsp 2x4 units ?

My problem is that under the specification list for the minidsp 2x4 it has room EQ and bass mgmt ticked and the
miniDSP 4x10 HD has room EQ but not bass mgmt. So am i right in saying that the miniDSP 4x10 HD wont work for my specific bass DSP requirement ?

All things to be said i am a little out of my depth here and any advice would be appreciated.
