I think it looks a lot better. Yeah, the scaffolding isn't exactly beautiful, but the ugliest part of the Abyss to me was always the large tattoo-parlour/american-chopper fonts used for the logo on the headband. With that bit gone, it's already an order of magnitude better looking.
Either way, it doesn't make a difference to the sound , plus it's probably more comfortable, so everything's good. Had the opportunity to try the Abyss at a show late last year and enjoyed the experience greatly. Can't personally justify spending $6K on a headphone (at least double that if counting an amp and source to do the setup justice), but those who can are lucky headphiles, no doubt.
