Phone speakers are not the best when you’re trying to play someone Lil John’s “Turn Down For What”.

If you’re looking to pound the beats, there’s countless home remedies to make the sound project louder, all without buying a fancy portable speaker.  There’s timeless classics such as placing the phone in the bathroom sink, or the old  glass vase or pitcher trick. It’s not a huge improvement, but it does help.
