And when a playback system is actually putting out mono isn't it just putting putting both the L and R into one combo output?
The only thing I have noticed about trying to get a mix to sound good on limited playback systems is if the mix has lows like a kick drum or bass gtr. you seem to loose everything below about 150 hz so I tend to boost 100 to 250 a bit to keep the low instruments still audible

If its a 'good mix' chances are that it has been checked by the mixing engineer in mono so that it will sound good in mono - it isn't just 'chance'!
Two earbuds - not necessarily these days.
As to boosting the lows for 'limited playback systems' - umm ... you're boosting the lows on your mix, so now on a GOOD playback system the lows are too loud!
