I'm not sure why people put down the O2 as a suitable amp for the ADs. Mine gets plenty loud at 2.5x gain. Perhaps, it's because I've recently added AGDRs booster board to my O2. http://agdraudio.com/Page2.html
It provides the ability for current to peak at 250mA per channel vs. the 120mA with the stock O2. It adds a nice snappiness to the O2 in conjunction with the ADs. If you're DIY inclined don't hesitate to do it @ $25 for a bare board. AGDR also sells completed boards for $85, which seems like a decent price for an upgrade.
One thing to note, I never thought the stock O2 was lacking with the ADs. It's just that this upgrade steps it up a notch.
