Fix 4 – Use external object to amplify the sound

This tip can be useful for any iPad user. There is a limit up to which your iPad can deliver sound. You can’t expect more sound, even when the volume slider is set to the maximum. But, there is a trick where you can use a stack of books or a side wall to boost your iPad’s sound.

Step 1 – Simply place a stack of books or something solid within 5–7 cm of the iPad speakers.

Step 2 – Adjust the angle of this stack to maximize the output from the speakers.

You will experience a definite increase in the sound output from your iPad.

Hope these tricks have helped you!
