The Amplified Amplifier is a treasure in Pikmin 2, actually a loudspeaker from a stereo, found on the final floor (7) of the Shower Room. Getting it requires fast thinking, as a Ranging Bloyster has to be defeated. After it is brought to the Research Pod, the ship uses it to create the Mega Tweeter.
Mega Tweeter
Unlocking the Mega Tweeter increases the range of the whistles of all Captains. The diameter of the visible circle on the screen increases to about 144% of its original size, thus more than doubling the area the whistle affects. This makes it easier to call scattered Pikmin to Olimar's side.
Notes
Ship's dialogs
“Processing... How odd. The gooey creature dissolved, leaving this curious item behind.
It appears to be coated in slime. Are you sure you want to collect this? ...Absolutely sure?
You'll toss just about anything in my hold. It would be nice if you cleaned occasionally.
This shape is well suited for the emission and amplification of sound waves. A moment, please.
I shall use this as the final part in my new sound equipment. The Mega Tweeter is done!
Captain Olimar, this device has increased the acoustic range of your whistle!”
