Dear Headfellows,
> would it be able to drive both high impendance headphones (HD580) and IEM's?
Yes, the amplification level is set to a medium level. With a 2V source (stationary CD-player) you have enough gain for even high impedance headphones. Only with a portable source with low output level will maximum sound level be slightly restricted.
With high efficient headphones the amplification level is low enough not to cause any noise and problems with volume control. The amp is very quiet really.
> I order one now, will it be reserved for me until I pay?
Yes, of course.
> it's a little narrower and taller than the HAI, right?
same width but slightly taller (because of the capacitors used).
> is the 10% donation considered a Head-Fi contribution from the purchaser
No, it isn't.
Headphone socket is 1/4"
Cheers
