Has anyone directly compared the HD700 and HD800?

I'm just wondering because I always hear about how the HD700 is this abomination of a headphone with painful, unbearable treble and how the HD800 is this amazing headphone but a little on the 'bright' side. So I went to go compare their frequency graphs and this is what I got:

Now I know a freq. graph doesn't tell the whole story but it looks like the two are very similar (the HD700 even has LESS of a treble spike, but a little more bass roll off).

So has anyone head both the HD700 and HD800 (preferably in the same sitting) and care to explain the differences that a graph can't.
