technology What have i done to my PSP-2004?

[Fiery Shadow 109]

I have officially given my Playstation Portable Slim model 2004 a new way of audio-ing things.

 

I present to you: The PSP Fatty-Woofer Version 1.0.

Now "WHY?" you scream towards me from across the globe, "Why would you EVER put a big and clunky speaker in the back of your PSP?" you yell even further.

 

 

Well, to start off, the sound quality on the PSP is... well... i'll give you a hint. It begins with S and ends with HIT.

 

That's right. "Not very good".

and for that sole reason, i strapped my music angels bets friendz portable speaker onto the back of it and gave it a little more BASS. PON-3 would be proud.

 

give it a litsen with my attached video i recorded from my iPad.

what do you think?

 

 

Pros

+ Better sound quality

+ More heavier which makes it more easy to balance.

+ Still portable

+ The shoulder buttons, dpad, analog nub and [] X O /\ are completely untouched.

 

Cons

- UMD Drive is completely denied access.

- Requires a second charge cable for the speaker

- Sticky-tape shivstorm.

- Not pocketable.

 

Balanced out, yeah i think it's a good idea. if you want to do this yourself, be warned. it will cost you tape.

I mostly use my PSP for emulators these days, so the sound being not that great is meaningless to me. I did catch the Ashens reference though.

You could do this with a Vita since the battery is sealed and the games don't use UMD discs but small cards. I don't really use my PSP anymore but i still use my Vita.

This is why I used headphones to play on mine, and on my Vita.
