Has anyone had any luck with a lightning cable to go from the port on an iPhone 6 to the music plug on a Bose A20 headset? I've tried the little adapters from several manufactures, and while they work for about a minute and a half, the eventually stop working and give me an error message saying that the device is not supported. (And yes, I've tried all the fixes I could find online.)

I would like to listen to music on long XCs. I'm almost to the point of buying a separate mp3 player.
 
Oh Snap! Dude, that will work on my Ridgeline as well. Sweet. Ordering now. Thanks!
 
It works very well so far and is surprisingly cheap.

I'm confused...you want to use a Lightning (USB) cable to connect an iPhone 6 to the A20? The iPhone 6 has a standard 3.5mm TRRS port on it, so a TRRS cable should be sufficient. It's on the iPhone 7 that they dropped the 3.5mm headphone port, and one has to use the Lightning to Headphone adapter. What adapters are you trying to use? The A20 should have come with a TRRS to TRRS 3.5mm cable (like an Aux cable but with an extra conductor).
 
My bad. I meant 7. I wish I still had my 6.
