Sound Mod: Pump Up the Volume!

No, Christian Slater has nothing to do with this post... come to think of it, he has nothing to do with much of anything now a days, but I digress. Califrag has posted an interesting little mod for those of you who just can't get the PSP to jump like you want it to. The process does involve opening up the PSP case, so the warranty will be thrown out the window on this one. For a complete rundown on how to go about setting the PSP's sound free, check out this thread on PSPUpdates' forums.

On a related note, Califrag has also given us some pointers on using "tracking caps" or "mouse caps" for laptops to replace the standard analog nub as an alternative to the large, bluky PSP nubs out on the market. You can check out that thread of PSPUpdates' forums [here].

ok., that mod is complete crap. first of all those "speaker holes" aren't even the real speaker holes. the actual speaker holes are located at the bottom of the psp not the frickin front. removing the plastic cover thing over them does NOTHING!! so to everyone who read that mod..... Don't do it, you will regret it.

As LittleMeighen said, the holes on the front are not speaker holes. Why Sony even put those holes there, we will never know.

Here is an idea maybe the placed those speaker holes there for ventalation, your psp is still a computer, slower than a pentium 2 yes, but still a computer, and actually this would make some noticable diffrence in sound levels, but those are also there to keep dust from getting in.
