I have a question. I have a HIFIDIY ESS ES9023 USB DAC + Fiio E9 combo on my desk. Would it make sense for me to buy the ODAC+O2? Seems odd to drop so much clams on an amp+dac when I have a dac that has similar specs as the ODAC and an amp that isn't utter junk. The E9 isn't THAT great an amp though I'll admit.
Kwangsun, I would say that ODAC sounds better than HIFIDIY 9023 DAC. As for the Fiio E9 vs. O2, feel free to read Nwavguy's headamps compare webpage; I would say that that O2 is top notch at this price tag and Fiio E9 is not even close. You can also check Tyll's reviews and tests with many other headphone amplifiers; http://www.head-fi.org/t/670889/tyll-hersten-innerfidelitys-21-amp-measurements for details.
