Fred,
this has been true with every iPhone I've ever run across, and you can't say those are "inexpensive devices."
Besides, I didn't overtly assign blame. I just said that's how it is. I point out that players are different from "standard consumer" levels, so if anything, I blame the players.
When the larger charging port was used, a cable was available that connected there and sent audio via a 3.5mm plug and the level was a lot closer to that of a normal source.
To be honest, I would use the BT receiver I installed at the school gym before I would use the output from the ear plug jack. It's not worth screwing around. If someone really wants to get all of this, the Denon Pro piece is a BT receiver with XLR out.
Available at Fred's favorite distributor.
