Your smallest subwoofer. You probably have several and they probably stay busy. When you aren't happy with it, what is the most common reason. Poll is below!
Besides not having a pole cup, the TH-Mini's single handle on top is awkward for it's weight IMO. I'm tempted to remove the handle and try to fabricate a pole cup plate to take its place. I'd then mount a pair of spring loaded handles in the sides I guess?
I do have even smaller - a pair of Peavey PRSUB that do fine for hearing-friendly-SPL gigs with 500w into each. I can carry two at a time.
I also have a pair of GK bass cabs, 4 ohm MBE212's that weigh 34 lbs each. Those I intend to install pole cups on - they thump pretty good with 800w into each and only give up maybe 3db over the TH-Mini's. Much easier to carry around .
My mains are usually a pair of RCF 310A's - and Steve is right about folks hearing with their ears . C'est la vie .
My "smallest" subwoofer is also my largest subwoofer currently.
Yeah, if your smallest subwoofer could be louder then maybe it would become your biggest subwoofer as well.
Years ago I used to think that it was the bass that was the hardest to do. In more recent years I've come to the conclusion that it's not. The "top box" really does hold a lot of challenges. But this digresses from the point of the poll. Lets party and may the bass be adequate for all!
My "smallest" subwoofer is also my largest subwoofer currently. My only complaint is that a single box doesn't always have enough get up and go, but that can be solved by simply adding more boxes.

Well my smallest sub is the SRX718, which I guess isn't super small. But I haven't had any real complaints with it yet after 4 years, which I guess is great for me and not for your poll. I guess I'll put in a vote for output since who wouldn't want more headroom, even beyond what physics would allow!

My tops are RCF 310A's - 27.5 lbsWould you add a large plate to the bottom of the mini as well for better stability? Even at 73lbs it's just too small of a footprint for a speaker on top, I think.
I use tops on poles on my subs for small shows.
Works fine and definitely gets them high enough
I usually point them down a bit w/balance tilters.
