Cheap = Take set apart and wire something to the speaker (Not Recommended)
Next best - with rel 9, use a ring group to ring multiple devices. 2nd device would be analog set. Connect device to analog set for loud bell. Gets problematic if VM is necessary but otherwise workable.
Recommended - Upgrade to Rel 10 (MCD 4.0) and utilize personal ring group to ring multiple devices. 2nd device is analog as above.

Burn a SIP user license, install a Grandstream HandyTone-286. Add the phone you want ringing the loud bell as a key appearance on the SIP ATA. Plug the Loud bell into the Grandstream. Now when the phone rings the loud bell rings also. The ATA is ~$40 us + SIP license. Total cost would be somewhere between $150 to $200 US.

IMO the easiest thing that comes to mind would be upgrading to 10.0 and then setup a personal ring group for that extension that has an ONS port in the group (if you have an open one). The ONS port and the user extension will be put into the PRG. then you could buy a cheap analog ringer and keep it close to the IP phone.
I always hate trying to deal with regular hunt groups and ring groups due to the difficulty with MWI's

Put the loud bell on an Analog ONS port bridged onto an LS trunk, make the answer-point in Trunk Service Assignment the DN of the 5312, similar to the way we hacked the non-busy ext. in faq1329-5872
A kludge, but cheap.

As much as I use loopback trunks you'd think that would have occured to me.
