Hi. I have a GRE PSR500 that I like to use mobile at times, but the audio somewhat sucks to be honest. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good amplified speaker that will allow me to receive louder, better quality audio while mobile. Thanks for your time.

Believe it or not I use several Bluetooth speakers for my scanners. The quality of the audio is much better and louder than the internal speakers. Auvio is the brand name that I use and there are several sizes you can purchase.
I use an audio cable and also have a Bluetooth Tao Tronics Transmitter that connects to the radio.

Find a computer speaker that runs on 9-15 volts DC. Been running one in my truck over 20 years now. Cheapest way to go and very loud, adjustable volume.

Another option is using your car's accessory audio input if it has one, or a cassette deck line in adapter cassette.

+1 on posts #5 & #6, both work well. Haven't ever messed with bluetooth but an FM micro-transmitter also works well if you don't mind finding a vacant frequency now and then if you travel a lot!
