a first and most helpful solution for your iPhone is playing Slow Music or Crackling music volume from either top receiver speaker or Bottom Stereo speaker. I highly recommend cleaning up those Speaker slots using a professional iPhone cleaning tool [This tool is reusable and helpful for cleanup another gadget].

The one-time investment gives more profit. using your soft hand, clean up dust, Remove Lint, heavy mesh from the speaker grill. and Blow the mouth air.

Now, your Speaker grill is ready to pass the equal sound quality to you.

Still are you not getting loud music volume from iPhone then check the audio balance between receiver and stereo speaker.

2. Check Audio Balance

Audio balance is essential settings for playing surround sound from the iPhone at any angle. I Recommend checking the below settings.

1. Go to the settings app on iPhone > Accessibility.
2. Next, Click on Audio/Visual > Scroll to the Audio Balance section, and Keep the slider at the center position.
3. That’s it.

If you are moving the slider to the left side then only the Bottom speaker will play sound, if the slider is on the right side then Top ear speaker will play the music.
