Would this amp be too over-powering for IEM's with the low impedance (ie. 32 Ohms), because i find that the E11 seems to be too over-powered even on the low gain to listen to IEM's

Yes, because most IEM does not need amps, or just need some amps which only change the sound , like make the sound more warm but not improve the drive ability.

Otherwise you could maybe implement a unity/2x gain switch for use with IEM's to satisfy the audiophiles obsessed with IEM's. And BA IEMS may need some more juice and lower noise than a phone/iPod can offer as far as I know.

Second that definitely, amplifiers such as Ray Samuels have good gain switched, L/M/H, which makes it suitable for all types of headphones, i really wish that Fiio can do this

the reason that I think E12 is not so suitable for IEM is because we have E11 which maybe good enough. I know a gain control can solve the problem and it will be included in E12, but 

 

E12 is bigger and expensive than E11.

i dont know if too early to ask this question, but i just wanna know, do you think e12 will get above $100 price range?

Anyway, we will try our best to provide more free review samples, usually we will prepare about 20+ free samples to our fans, head-fi'er, editor, and such etc.. but plz understand us that we need to make sure the reviews can cover more regions and media as possible. 

 

And we have a review application to people who want to review our products, we hope the reviewer should have the skill in SQ and reasonable device to help other people.

Any chance that a small time reviewer can get a review sample sometimes (Personal site and part-time for some local media)? I don't mind having to pay for it (Possible to charge us cheaper than RRP?), as long as I can get my hands on a set early (The site review one product each month which has the highest number of reader's votes).

Depend on our different demo, the 6 AAA batteries have the best sound quality, and it can almost puch out 800mW per channel@32ohs driver. I think it can drive most headphone quick well even the 250ohms DT880,
