Just split the pre-outs for the front l/r and send the second line to the sub's input. Set the front l/r to "large" and tell the 950 that there is no subwoofer. All the LFE and bass from "small" speakers will be redirected to the front l/r outputs. Set the crossovers on the subs to match well with your l/r mains.
We did this on this system:

The 950 is where the blank block-off is, the dbx 234 and Samson amps have been replaced with Hypex (from Adire audio) 3-way plate amps. Drivers are Vifa TC series 3/4", 3 1/2", and 7". Subs are PE Titanic MKII 12" and -794 250W plate amps.
