Hi, Depending on your 10G requirements ASR903 might be an option (it provides up to 4x10G + 15x1G) with redundant sups. It runs IOS XE. Other option might be the 2 slot ASR9k - ASR9904 (http://d2zmdbbm9feqrf.cloudfront.net/2013/usa/pdf/BRKSPG-2684.pdf slide 15). I personally wouldn't go with the 6x00 as it still feels like the whole MPLS aspect of it (particularly L2 aspects of it) is not at the core of the design of the platform.
