They Call It The Loud Basstard...

2016-09-01
it's called the loud bass tard loud bastard not 100% sure it's a handmade bamboo sound amplifier now this falls into that category of phone amplifiers that don't need to be plugged into the wall instead they're using strictly acoustic amplification I have thought these things are pretty cool for a while not sure how much it's going to amplify sound but I'm looking for something where I can just quickly drop my phone in move it around from desk to desk maybe even just amplify the speakerphone on a phone call for example so this one does that and I think it looks pretty good it's made out of bamboo you know I like bamboo so there's a picture of the side dock and play that is a pretty straightforward package whoo pretty sleek this is a giant package of silica gel for Jack there you go buddy it comes in a couple of different colors this is kind of the classic bamboo look it also comes in some darker finishes as well now that is that is very nice I mean it looks like it's carved out of a chunk of a stock of bamboo maybe it is on the side here engraved loud bastard based hard now because the slot here is so big it doesn't really matter what your device is I mean for example here's an s7 with a battery case on it and that goes in there here's a regular iPhone 6's I'm not really sure if you want to kind of have it that way that way or slid down now there's all kinds of like professional versions of this as well as like its DIY versions you'll even see some people turning beer cups into acoustic amplifiers or some people just on your bedside table have like a glass that they drop their phone in and then that helps to amplify it as well essentially you're looking at an acoustic amplification technique this stuff is super old fashioned and been around for a while but anyhow this is just on an iPhone hi phone 6s as you know speaker is on the bottom that's your volume you're working with so not very much now let's see what happens when we drop it in here so it gives it a little bit a little bit more low-end again let's do a comparison here without and then with so it not only kind of amplifies it a bit but it also gives it a bit of a thicker tone as well for the sake of it I'll do it on the s7 here as well now into the device here now I would say works even better on this one it's not going to replace like a Bluetooth speaker for example but it's kind of like a nice little I don't know design piece aesthetically it might be pleasing to you it's really easy to move it around and it's kind of just a place to stick your phone anyway so I could see people just having it in their kitchen and just kind of dropping their phone in there and then boom it's it's a little bit louder it's not going to take your music a stadium level but it is certainly going to do the job of slightly amplifying what you're getting out of your smartphone speaker without the need to plug anything in and with it I don't know a kind of aesthetically pleasing look to it they're not too pricey check them out
