Dunno about the length actually, just saw them in an unboxing video on youtube. There is no specification about their length anywhere
Well, didn't compare the DA3 and IQ but they probably have a really similar sound since they are using the exact same components of the exact same brands.
The amp is exactly the same, the Q2C has the particularity of being a DAC+AMP in one chip, so it should have as much power as the DA3.
No idea if it would compare to the HA-2, never tried it. But to me it sounds better than my Aune X1S and my DFR if it can be a reference. It drives my K712 way better than the DFR, has less power than the X1S but the DA3 still sounds more natural to my ears.
As I said in another topic, the DFR still has the advantage of its form factor and its low consumption... but its sound quality isn't quite as good. I probably would go with the IQ if I needed a portable device nowadays.
