Hi,
 
To answer your questions:
 
1) Ceteris paribus, there is little in it so try both in your system with your speakers and decide for yourself. If you do not go portable much, then the less expensive iDAC2 is the one for you.
 
 
2) Nope, only on the 3.5mm so you can get a 3.5m > RCA cable and use the headphone section to work as pre-amp. But try this first to see if you like it.
 
 
3) It is less powerful than the iDSD micro operated in Normal and Turbo mode. It is somewhat more powerful than the iDSD micro in Eco mode.
 
 
 
4) Any iFi dealer around the globe should be fine as they all have their allocation. The first 500 units are out there in the wild!
 
Just lookup:

If you are in the USA, contact Music Direct or Avatar Acoustics. Either will look after you well.
 
 
Cheers.

 
Thank you for the detailed reply,
 
1) I don't go portable at all. You said it's different but not which one is better. Is it the same DAC or one is better than the other?
2) So the iDSD micro has the pre-amp unlike the iDAC2? if I use the 3.5 > RCA cable and use another amp, it means I will be double amping it?
3) Would it be possible to tell me how much power the iDSD micro has in the HE-560 vs the iDAC2?
4) Thank you - I got in touch with my local dealer
