I love my HD 8xx (with eq), but they feel like they are less open than all the other open back headphones I've tried. They feel more like 1/3 a closed back.
I was wondering if anyone here who has done the sticker mod, or has an HD 800/S, could let me know if they are more open without the stickers.
And to clarify, when I say "open", I mean how much sound it lets through from the outside, not the soundstage.

I have no personal experiences with the 8XX, but here's a video I watched a little while back about this mod that might be helpful for you:
