I got to thinking that a bullhorn itself might be the best solution. Self contained and built to make stuff loud, if not in high fidelity.
The only problem is that they tend to be unidirectional....but if placed behind the seat in a fabric covered aircraft facing aft, it might turn it into a drum-like amplifier (hmmm, maybe to dubious effect?).
Cutting the horn down might do the trick...
