DCX2496 & DEQ2496 for L-R-C & 3 Subs EQ?

So I have both a DCX2496 and a DEQ2496 and am wondering if I can do the following in an elegant way (My current thinking is that I would be better off with two DCX2496) :

I have a left, center, right monitor and three subs (two medium size, one large).
My goal is to use the two medium sized subs in stereo, feeding L+C to one, and R+C to the other. LFE to the large sub.

I will need to create crossovers and want to EQ everything. Can it be done?

I know I can do L+Sub, R+S, and C with just one DCX2496.
What I can't figure out is how to also get the C split and summed to the L&R subs.

Thanks.

What for? If stereo subs is what you want, L+Sub and R+ sub will do it. What to you expect summing the C to the L/R subs is going to get? Looks to me like you’ll end up with the L/R subs getting essentially a mono signal.

You could only do this with the addition of a buffer amp. I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve here.

If you are not careful and do this right you will have mono X 3.

I had to solve this problem to get the mono LFE signal to my amps and driver providing the diffraction compensation to the L & R mains, which obviously I did not want to be mono.
