Given the building blocks Devialet has in place it should be technically possible but is that really something you would want? In discrete surround systems the front L and R units (maybe C) are usually much higher spec than the surrounds as this is where the sound of interest is coming from. When listening to music (and assuming one is facing the band/orchestra) most of the direct and first reflected sound is coming from in front of you. So having a Dione at the front and Phantoms at the rear could be viewed as a little bit 'bass ackwards'?
