There are two solutions. The first, and by far the most common, is to upgrade to Hella Horns. That's a very easy mod.

However, I think they sound like complete crap. So the next level up would be something like the horns I had on my BRZ prior to the HORNS OF DESTINY, which were the horns off of a 90s Cadillac. Those vehicles were fitted with four horns (tuned to A,C,D,F). It's a bit more work as you have to find a spot to mount all four, and also run a power wire with a relay off the battery, as you don't want to power all four from the stock wiring, but that's a relatively minor job and the result is a fantastic-sounding "reasonable" but still very loud horn.

Just search for Cadillac DeVille Horns on E-Bay and you'll find listings from people selling them. It's how I got mine. Or, you know, find an old DeVille at a junkyard.

Here's a short clip of what they sounded like on mine:
