like if you have two paper cups joined together with a piece of string to make a communication tool but you can only hear the words if you put your ear to it.

in that case, the vibrations travel on the string. Try strings of different materal some may be better

Try different materials. Thinner cord and thinner cups should help the vibration to travel further. But... I don't think that you should be able to hear the sound from the cup unless it's up by your ear. It would be too slack for the vibrations to be able to travel correctly.

use copper wire instead of string and cups should be cone shaped with the small ends facing away from the ear

The original hearing aids were horns and tubes that people spoke into. http://www.hearingcenteronline.com/museum.shtml
What are you trying to do, anyway? Maybe if you gave some details, we'd be able to give more helpful answers.
