Yes, any DAC/Amp that you want to use a DAC (and doesn't have a line out) should be set to 100% volume, regardless of the digital input used.
Yep, as far as I know you're supposed to set volume to 0.0 dB (not 100%/max/+6 dB) unless it sounds like it's saturating for some reason. Optionally you can set the output level estimator to the mode for use with an amp though you're probably leaving it at 0.0 dB anyway. You can use this mode with Bluetooh or USB input.has anybody tried connecting es100 to another headphone amp (daisy chain). What's the ideal setting?
I used to use my ES100 as a LDAC receiver (connected permanently to my Denon receiver) and that is how I used it as well. I left it and 0db and it worked fine.Yep, as far as I know you're supposed to set volume to 0.0 dB (not 100%/max/+6 dB) unless it sounds like it's saturating for some reason.

I think the info is all here: (link on the ES100 product page)Thanks for the quick responses! Will try your suggestions
YesDoes that apply even if it's used as a bt receiver?
Hi BvboreI'm having a couple of problems with my ES100. I have selected the car power setting (Auto Power off when charger disconnected ) in the app, when I power off my car the ES100 does power off, but when I power on my car the device stays off until I press the power button. This does not happen when I use a wall-charger to power the device and it turns off and on as I expect. I also cannot get the ES100 to automatically connect to my phone on power-on. Has anyone experienced either of these problems and found the solution or at least the root cause?
I found the cause of my ES100 staying power off in my situation. its the remaining power in my charger. I switched to a charger with 2 slots to drain it with some other device, next time it will power on correctly.I'm having a couple of problems with my ES100.

I think qudelix has been really popularMy ES100 is getting on a bit now, its original v1 and battery only lasts a few hours, not to mention the very annoying constant alerts once it hits 10%. Anything worth looking at for a replacement? I love the size for when I am out and about, is the Fiio BTR5 a good replacement, happy to spend more if there is anything else out there?
Thanks will check it out, have some CA Dorado on the way so wanting something new and shiny to go with themI think qudelix has been really popular
Did you manage to find a replacement battery? I also can't find the SL572035 anywhere and would like to try to replace the battery in my ES100 (which suffers spontaneous death syndrome).My battery is degrading quite fast now days. In 3.5mm mode with 1x power i get 4-5h playback over aptx-hd. I have had it since the indie gogo campain and use it 2-4h daily so im not dissapointed in this, its normal battery degradation.
So im looking to replace my battery but im not certain what battery to pick, is there a fitting one with more mAh? Has anyone repleaced the battery? What battery did you get?
I found this in alibaba but im not sure about buying batteries from china; https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/OEM-lipo-battery-5-7-20_60707777567.html
This one seems to be for a quadra-copter and the text says 350mAh (same as es100 stock battery) but the image says 300mAh and im very unsure to hit the buttin with import fees to sweden etc...
Specs/marking from the original es100 battery:
SL572035 3,7v
350mAh 1.295Wh
