My plan is using my Mac Mini without keyboard or screen and control it from an iPad, this will allow me on the few occasions when needed to control PA mixes from the room as well.

I don't trust Presonus preamps after working extensively with the Digimax and the Eureka. Not my flavor of choice.

I went with Speck X-Sum. Works great and serves as analog summing unit at mix

Same here. No regrets. Great mixer!

The Speck X.Sum is an incredible unit and an amazing deal considering the audio quality. I have two of them and they are in constant use. Every mix I do gets summed through an X.Sum.

More recently I felt a need for faders and a bit more routing control so I picked up this 40-channel bad boy:

I use the Ashly LX-308B and its great. Awesome build quality and great features with plenty of usable I/O. I think you'd be very happy with a pair of those guys. And for 1000$ (for 2 units) you can't go wrong.
