When I first read your post on setting up three subs, that was my number one concern. Yes, you'll have bass up the wazzzooo, but its all going to be out of phase and sound like crap unless you have crossovers (do plate amps have these built in?). If they dont, then you need to purchase them, and add them to the circuit. For your front subs - you can purchase a RCA "sub splitter jack" - basically allows for one in and two out. Run your sub out to it, then individual RCA's to each sub. (my M&K has "networking" built in for running subs in series or parrallel?) For the rear surround sub - I'd look for a plate amp that allows you to run both your R and L surround speaker wires into it, and has sub out, and R/L audio out. I dont have a clue if they even make such a thing, but in that scenario, your sub would be carrying the low bass for both the surrounds.
