    Usually when I turn the volume to 30 when I am playing music through my Iphone via bluetooth, it's very loud and sounds good IMO. As of late, when I turn the volume to 30, it's very quiet and sounds like a radio.

    My phone volume is all the way up and I haven't changed any settings. Anyone else have this issue or know of a solution?

    is the sound different (better?) if you try to directly plug your phone via wire? It might be worth testing out.

    I'm only trying to play through bluetooth. Never had any issues before, sounded great and was nice and loud. Now it's merely a shadow of it's former self.

    right, but if the sound is different when plugged in via wire than you might conclude you have a Bluetooth issue. if the same, they problem is elsewhere.

    Ah gotcha, thought you were just suggesting to primarily use wire and give up.

    This happened to me a while back ... can't remember what I did ... If I recall, it was the phone that had an issue.

    Here are some things to consider:

    Close all other apps
    Restart iPhone
    Unpair/Pair phone again

    iTunes?
    Look for 'Sound Check' and turn it off.

    Found that setting in my music app if thats what you meant. What does that option do?

    EDIT: Googled it, this may be the cause. Causes all music to play at the same volume. Cant confirm solution yet, but that sounds right.
