You have to play around with the volume control sliders on the input device. The are usually software settings, at least on my iPad.

For example, When a playlist song plays select it and then slide the software VC slider to max. Adjust as necessary.

Please let us know if this is the fix.

Take a look (if not yet done) at the section of the GLK Operator's Manual covering the external audio source connected to the AUX socket, page (#) 154 and downwards: http://www.mbusa.com/vcm/MB/DigitalAssets/pdfmb/ownersmanual/2010_glk.pdf

On page 155 there is a section with regard to increasing the volume for the AUX socket, as well with the "Boost" feature.

Ive also noticed it sometimes depends on the file/song itself, in my ipod some songs are louder than others. The boost option is always on for maximum volume.
