Yes I compared them within 3-4 months and ended up with the Abyss. IMO the HD800 sounded rather sterile and have an unnatural spherical soundstage. But the Abyss it's not worth the french price.
and no "comfort "issue with the ABYSS ?

thanks and...I vote for " organic and texture " rather than " bass slam and tightness ".
Have you compared ABYSS with the HD800 that is supposed to be very good wit the 445 according to Craig ? Is the ABYSS really a step-up ?

If you heard any squeaking noises today... don't worry: that was just my wallet. In exchange for the contents of my wallet an Abyss is on its way to me. I sure hope it is at least as good as everyone says

In my opinion they are an especially good choice if you already have a v281, or a Mjolnir like Butler, because you don't need to buy any other gear, just the headphone, where as a 009 (the other popular choice in this price range) really needs a minimum of a $5k electrostat amp which most people don't just have sitting around...
I think I've arrived at my final destination and found my DREAM TEAM:
MOON NEO/ABYSS-BEAUTY&BEAST=STATE OF THE ART
