Last night, I made a review / comparison of the HD700 with the HD800.
HD700... what a great headphone =)
You mention you used Schiit stack to drive HD700. What did you use with HD800? The entry Schiit stack does not do the HD800 justice and I would not be surprised if the HD700 actually sound better from it. I owned the HD700 about half a year ago before selling it abd I currently own the HD800 and the AKG K812. From memory the K812 has a very similar signature to the HD700 with more of a bass presence, but has the level of details as the HD800. I found that the HD700 was a touch weaker in details and refinement and was ultimately the deciding factor for me to part ways with it. Your impressions reaffirm what I think about the K812 being a technically better HD700. I'll get to hear the HD700 again next week at a meet so I'll be able to confirm this. If you like the signature of the HD700, you should give the K812 a try.
