The best SS amp with the HD800s to my ears is the B22. Special mention to the Concerto and Gilmour Lite for amps under $1000.
This is why I have such low post count. Everyone says what I'm about to say before I say it.
LoL...sorry about that.

I found the Luxman P1-u to match very well, but my favorite is the Violectric V200 - a third of the price and a fifth of the size.
I just procured a used Apache for little under $2000 and it is absolutely stunning(sells for $3k new). I upgraded from a Concerto and it "blows it out of the water". Detail retrieval and soundstage is just unbelievable. If you can find a used Apache it has my highest recommendation.
To my ears, the HA160D is a nice match for the 800's...music sounds effortless and natural.
