Are you reffering to 9sp or 10sp XO? I have a bike on the 10sp version and I agree they were great product.
To me however, the best SRAM drivetrain ever was the original XX1 11sp. Crisp, reliable and beautiful. I built a hardtail last year with a full XX1 drivetrain (NOS). Even if it's 10 years old, I find it easily beats the XO.1 Eagle I have on my other bike.
The OG Juicy 7 with the plastic red adjuster knobs (from 2006 iirc) were indeed amazing. I have a set that I used on several bikes and that are still working perfectly on my commuter bike.
