Short answer: the Minirig 3, narrowly, since the two are otherwise identical. Both are modular and can easily attach a subwoofer, both are not stereo, and both list at $140 and $140. That leaves rank as the separator: the Minirig 3 sits at #8 of 179 against #9 of 179 for the Minirig 2.
Buy the Minirig 2 or the Minirig 3, whichever you find used in better condition; both are discontinued. For a new speaker, buy the Minirig 4, which replaces the Minirig 3.
